  2. TAB and TAB Out… Things to Keep in Mind • TAB is a place for students to regain self-control… it is NOT a punishment • Teachers may put students in TAB or a student may put self in TAB • When going to TAB or while sitting in the TAB chair, student is not to talk to, gesture toward, disrupt others… • When going into TAB, student takes nothing with him/her • When a student in TAB feels he/she has regained self-control, he/she may return to the class without teacher permission • Teachers may ask students to TAB OUT; Students may not “TAB OUT” themselves • TAB OUT will occur in a nearby classroom or the office (if needed) • While in TAB OUT, students will complete a reflection sheet. When finished, student will silently raise hand and patiently wait for TAB Out Room teacher to check his/her reflection sheet. • When the student returns to his/her class after TABBING Out, he/she waits at the door in the hallway until the classroom teacher has time to quick conference with the student and allow them back in

Speeches, diaries, letters, photographs, art work, artifacts, etc… from people that experienced a historical event. • Artifacts: objects made by and/or used by people • How do you think artifacts could help historians learn about the past? • Secondary Sources—Second-hand accounts of the past. Textbooks, videos, encyclopedias, web sites, etc... • http://youtu.be/cHTtpYYbhm0

Your #1 job is to be a good citizen. As a citizen, you HAVE to be informed and educated about your country’s past. • Watch this!

  9. Primary Source Analysis ActivityWritten Document

  10. Primary Source Example #1 • An excerpt from Mary Barker’s Diary March 5, 1770 I am so afraid! Father is not home yet and I am so worried that something horrible has happened to him! I was downtown this evening and I saw the fight start. It looked like a street fight between those bloody British Lobster Backs and a few neighborhood boys (including the handsome George Miller!) The boys were throwing rocks and chunks of ice at the soldiers and then shots rang out! I ran home as fast as I could! I heard that some people in the crowd died and I’m so worried that Father was there…

  11. Primary Source Example #2 • An excerpt of a letter • Dear Ma, Sorry that I haven’t written in so long…. I know that you must’ve worried about me something fierce. But, I am as fit as a fiddle, although I have had a few bouts of the quick step. Some fresh fish just joined our ranks from back home…I saw Tommy and he told me that you and Pa are doing fine. I haven’t seen any fighting for months… I’m just itching to whip those Rebs and teach them a lesson! I’m tired of camp life…eating hardtack and picking graybacks from my hair…
