Finding Primary Sources

Find three primary sources on your topic using the techniques and resources outlined in the videos.

• Choose three different types of primary sources (visual item, newspaper article, letter, speech, etc.)
• Focus on primary sources that are shorter in length (2 pages) or excerpts from a longer source. This will expedite the in-class assignment
• Enter all three of the sources into NoodleTools
• Have these primary sources accessible when you come to class
