Sourcing Classroom Poster

Sourcing asks students to consider who wrote a document as well as the circumstances of its creation. This poster reminds students before reading a document to ask:
•   Who wrote this? 
•   What is the author’s perspective? 
•   Why was it written? 
•   When was it written?
•   Where was it written?
•   Is this source reliable? Why? Why not?

The file is designed to be printed on 18" by 24" paper.
