So I loved the Weeping Frenchmen activity in 1.2 and wanted to extend that lesson a we bit.
I put together a short little activity based on famous photographs for kids to practice contextualizing information and then applying it.

Fantastic idea! I've been wondering if What's Going on in This Picture from the New York Times might be another way to reinforce contextualization using photos throughout the year.

I just stumbled onto the NYT's What's going in this picture?
That's a great idea and I wished I had followed up on it when you suggested it Anne!
This is brilliant. I don't now how I missed it !
Looking at some of these pictures, I'm wondering if part of the contextualization would be connecting the image to the history. How does what's going on in the picture connect to the themes and events kids have studied?
