In your history class you will be doing a lot of reading thinking and problem-solving. Much of your reading and thinking will center on different types of texts or materials. Historians work with different types of sources to understand and learn from history. As you learn more about your work as a historian you will begin to ask questions and analyze historical materials. You will be working as a detective digging into history to create a richer understanding of the mysteries of the past. - p. H3.
