Research | Creative Hunt Source Analysis Remember, for the historical essay, you need to find and analyze at least five sources - one primary source, one secondary source, one newspaper article, one scholarly article, one source of your choice. Be sure to document where the source came from in detail as you will need to create a works cited for your historical essay. At this point, you should have two completed Creative Hunts. If you do not, you are behind and should sign up for after school guided work time with Addie and Dan. Along with recording notes about what, when, where, who, how, why, answer the following questions about the sources you find and read:
Historical Compare and Contrast Essay | Definition Paragraphs Directions A compare and contrast essay analyzes both the similar qualities amongst essays as well as compares the differences. When constructing this essay, first determine your purpose, which will ultimately be your thesis statement and the argument of your paper. Next consider the similarities and the differences in order to create a structure for a paper in which you will argue the effectiveness of the essay. Your introductory paragraph must contain a thesis statement: topic + opinion. To begin this, consider the themes that run through all three essays. Remember theme is a statement about the human experience or about societal issues the author makes in their writing. You must include both direct and indirect evidence (quotes) to support your argument. In order to receive full credit: make a claim, provide the evidence, and explain why the evidence proves your claim. Components
Definition Paragraph: The definition paragraph introduces your audience to your interpretation of the topic. This paragraph will answer the majority of the closed questions you researched, but it also needs to include your personal understanding of the topic. This paragraph is where you will explain the What, When, Where, Who, How, Why of the historical events/people/ideas that you have begun to research.

Shared Experiences, Different Perspectives | Quick Jot, Mix n' Mingle Close your eyes. Think back to the very first day of the school year. Your first day as a freshman at Étude High School. Start to recall what we did that day. Picture yourself walking to Fountain Park - the people you walked with, the thoughts rolling through your mind, the sounds, smells, sights in the background, the way you felt. Now open your eyes and respond in a quick jot to the following prompts:
Evaluating Sources | Quick Responses Primary Source: Told from the perspective of an individual that directly witnessed or experienced the event that is being discussed. Secondary Source: Told from the perspective of an individual that was not directly involved, but instead researched the event, relaying the information they have found to be true. Creative Hunt | Source Analysis As you research your two historical events/people, you will be required to complete the Creative Hunt Source Analysis. On one side you will annotate a primary source. On the backside you will annotate a secondary source and compare the two sets of information. Today will practice this together by considering a primary and secondary source from the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
PRIMARY: Debate in the House of Representatives on USA Patriot Act of 2001 SECONDARY: Civil Liberties Today HYBRID
