"History and culture are best understood through the eyes, ears, ideas and creations of those people whose experiences we can examine.  Primary resources are the window through which we explore this heritage."

This on-line resource will guide you and your students through the use of primary source documents as you study the rich history of North Carolina.  Using primary documents in the classroom will engage your students in asking questions, thinking critically, and making inferences about the topic being studied.  Your students will gain a greater understanding of history as they unlock the mysteries from North Carolina's past.
