final historical thinking unit

Final Historical Thinking unit

How do historians read historical documents?

historians read historical documents by: first deciding if something is a primary source or a secondary source, second jot down notes while reading through and putting summary's after every paragraph or so, and third decide if the document is true by using bias which is pretty much using multiple documents to tell if something is true or not.

How do historians write history?

Historians write history by telling there point of view of what happened from what they think is true or what they want to make other people think is true.
