It utilizes a PowerPoint and\/or Google Slides cropping trick to break primary sources up into more easily digestible parts. By analyzing the parts before the whole, students are inspired by their natural curiosity.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThe power of this activity rests in the ability to crop out sections of the image or document to guide student\u2019s learning. As sections of the primary source are revealed, students discover new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.loc.gov\/teachers\/primary-source-analysis-tool\/\">observations, reflections, and questions<\/a> through their own inquiry process, acting as detectives for their own learning.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n<strong>Tips:<\/strong> If you\u2019re using an image, crop out everything but one side to give students a hint.
