Essentials Exploration- Level One
The Essentials Exploration, the level one workshop series, provides an orientation and overview of primary sources and the Library of Congress online resources. This hands-on workshop series focuses on strategies for navigating the Library’s website, engaging students through critical thinking and analysis, and exploring activities that integrate the Library’s sources into content across the curriculum and across grade levels.
The five-workshop series is typically offered through a “bookends” model with the first and fifth sessions delivered in person, on site, with the middle three workshops accessed online.
There are three ways to get involved:
Host sessions at your site. Call 970-351-1555 to discuss this option.
