Our fall Institute has reached the halfway mark and the Canvas discussion board is filled with an exchange of ideas for teaching with primary sources.  Here in the Network, your new albums are providing some unique primary sources both inside and outside loc.gov. This week you have the option to add more sources and take some time to describe how you will connect the learners in your school or organization with these sources.  That can be done in the Album description or in the Teaching Notes for one or more sources. It's not too late to add tags or comment on your classmates' albums in support of their inquiry ideas.

    And if you have questions about finding a particular primary source or how it could be used in a classroom, add your question here. There are Network Mentors and TPS ER Facilitators waiting to jump into the discussion!  Cheryl Davis    Kevin Leisten    Jennifer Hanson
