💭Let's Discuss...
Embedded Files
First, go to THIS LINK and weigh in:
Is it important for movies (and other art forms) to always be historically accurate? Why or why not?
🎬Next, we will watch a video about the historical (in)accuracy of the Disney Pocahontas movie.
Let's reflect in a Think-Pair-Share.

Secondary Sources
You will need at least THREE secondary sources. Your first source should be a general background article on your conflict. The databases are a great place to find this!
Once you know what primary sources you are analyzing, you'll find secondary sources discussing them. For your other secondary sources, you may want to search either the databases or Google for reviews, editorials or news articles about your specific medium example.
Examples: movie reviews, a news article about a new monument.
