Wonderful Washington Teachers, October 18th is quickly approaching and we still have some room in our Primary Sources class especially for teachers. We are keeping the archives open just for you from 4 - 7 PM that evening. You will leave the workshop with a knowledge of research principles, primary source documents related to this year's History Day theme to use in your classroom, and some examples of ways to use primary sources in Social Studies, English, and other disciplines. Knowing where to look for and find AUTHENTIC primary source documents in archives and special collections are necessary skills for all scholars, including your students and yourselves. Come join us at the National Archives at Seattle for 3 FREE clock hours and a skill-set you will use for the rest of your academic life!
