The Teacher's Guide for Primary Sources: Florida e-Book provides easy-to-use streamlined lesson plans that offer tips that can be easily glanced and implemented. Each lesson clearly states which Florida standard it connects to, and offers a step-by-step approach on how to introduce a primary source document to initiate the lesson and class discussion, strategies for paired/small-group/class discussion, and what historical information is needed, as well as activities and extension ideas.
