Using a Kentucky state website excerpt and a short news article, students practice pulling evidence into a two-source note catcher with columns for claim, source, quote or detail, and category. In pairs, they compare which details truly show the governor's actions versus broader state events. Students finish by adding at least one state source and one news source to a source checklist for their own governor.
