Sheet Music/Audio • Come, listen, all you girls and boys, I'm just from Tuckahoe; • I'm going to sing a little song, My name's Jim Crow. • Chorus: Wheel about, and turn about, and do just so; • Every time I wheel about, I jump Jim Crow. • I went down to the river, I didn't mean to stay, • But there I saw so many girls, I couldn't get away. • I'm roaring on the fiddle, and down in old Virginia, • They say I play the scientific, like master Paganini, • I cut so many monkey shines, I dance the galoppade; • And when I'm done, I rest my head, on shovel, hoe or spade. • I met Miss Dub one day, I give her such a buss [kiss]; • And then she turn and slap my face, and make a mighty fuss. • The other girls they begin to fight, I told them wait a bit; • I'd have them all, just one by one, as I thought fit. • I whip the lion of the west, I eat the alligator; • I put more water in my mouth, then boil ten loads of potatoes. • The way they bake the hoe cake, Virginia never tire; • They put the dough upon the foot, and stick them in the fire.
Suggestions for using primary sources… • Before you begin… • Choose 2/3 primary sources that support the learning objectives • Consider how to compare these to other primary and secondary sources • Identify an analysis tour/guiding questions to analyze the primary sources
More suggestions… • Draw on prior knowledge • Observe each primary source • Who created it? When? Where does your eye go first? • See key details.. • What did you see that you didn’t expect? What powerful words/ideas were expressed? • Think about your personal response • Feelings/thoughts that are triggered? What questions are raised?
Promote student inquiry • Speculate about primary source • What was happening? What is the purpose? Do you get the point? What is the audience? Do you see stereotypes? • Students should test prior assumptions? Find other sources to support/refute.
Assess how students apply critical thinking and analysis to primary sources… • Summarize • Ask for reasons/specific evidence to support conclusions • Identify questions for further investigation and figure out strategies to answer them
