Image Detective

One of the skills that I must teach to the students in History is how to analyze a historical photograph.

Today, I instructed the students to complete the activity at the Image Detective and to post the results on their blogs. 

It is a nice little activity that is well constructed. 

Students are guided to choose a historical photograph.

Then, pose a question and search for clues to answer their question.

Then, draw a conclusion.

As I stated, the final results produced by the students showed that they had effectively analyzed their chosen photographs.
