Assessment

Native American Rights

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

It's time for scholars to put their knowledge of primary sources to the test. A helpful assessment uses photos to test pupils' knowledge of how to analyze primary sources and determine their time periods. High school social studies academics explain their analyses of Native American rights in short answer constructed responses using evidence from the photos.
