Primary Source Bundle #1

This resource bundle includes the following primary source sets: The Aztecs: Who or What Toppled The Mighty Aztec Empire?; Christopher Columbus: Hero of Villain?; and Squanto: “Wrath of God” or “gift from God?”

These three will take you through the first few months of a typical U.S. History classroom, up until pre-Revolutionary war. I designed them so each unit (Native Americans, exploration, and colonization) would have one primary source set to help students reach higher levels of thinking. They will all pair well with what you are already doing in class. The three sets also increase in difficulty. The Aztec set is the simplest with the fewest resources. The following sets build on the knowledge and skills students gain each time they complete a set.
