Children will need to look at sources that you could put around the room, or on their tables. They will fill in the grid and answer questions about each source such as, “What is it?” and “What information can we learn from it?” At the end of the lesson the whole class will have a discussion about source bias before deciding whether Alfred the Great was truly Great?
