My curriculum didn’t have much for primary and secondary sources so these task cards were perfect for my 4th grade class. My students were fully engaged in the activities and overall it was a well made learning activity.

Clever Thinkers –
Finding resources that align to Florida benchmarks is a bit challenging, so I have purchased quite a few things from Magicore. I planned to use these in my center rotation, but these task cards seem more appropriate for higher performing students and are a bit too challenging for my on-grade level learners at this time. I will put these on the shelf and bring them out when we spiral back around and for EOY review before testing.

These were great task cards that helped my students with comparing and contrasting two sources. They used them in a center and worked together to get the correct answer. I provided them with the answer key so they could self-check. Great resource.
