What Students Need to Do

Students compare accounts of an Oklahoma event using a newspaper excerpt, a textbook paragraph, and a map. They check who made each source and when. They use exact words and map details to support a conclusion.

02

What Mastery Looks Like

A student can explain how a 1907 newspaper account differs from a later textbook summary. They quote the article and name the two territories on a 1906 map. They explain what each source can and cannot prove.

03

Common Misconceptions

Students may assume an old newspaper is neutral because it was written at the time. They may call a modern textbook a primary source or treat a map's labels as proof of how residents felt.

04

How to Assess It

Hand out a 1907 statehood newspaper excerpt and a 1906 map of the two territories. Ask: “What changed at statehood? Cite one detail from each source, and explain how the newspaper's date affects its account.”

1. 01

   Give pairs a 1906 map of the two territories and a 1907 statehood newspaper excerpt; have them mark details that agree.

2. 02

   Ask, “Whose view of statehood appears in this 1907 newspaper excerpt, and whose is missing?” Require a quoted phrase.

3. 03

   Sort a 1906 map, 1907 clipping, 1907 cartoon, and textbook paragraph into primary and secondary sources; students explain one choice.

4. 04

   Compare a Statehood Day social media post with a 1907 newspaper front page; students identify one detail the post leaves out.
