Thinking Like An Historian: September 1, 2015

Today in class, we discussed some of the issues that historians have to consider by defining terms that influence our understanding of history.  We defined perception, perspective, bias, and interpretation, and then most of my classes spent time discussing how they would figure out what really happened if they were Mr. Perkins investigating a fight in the cafeteria.

HOMEWORK:  Complete assignment Q1-1, "The Lunchroom Fight". Spend 15-20 minutes drafting possible questions to find out what happened, using "w" words as your guideline.  If you lost your handout, it is linked below.
