Students create a shared evidence-tracking system in a spreadsheet or digital notebook with fields for citation, source type, author, date, audience, reliability notes, context clues, key quotation, image description, biology/geography link, and possible claim supported. The teacher models how one mission-era source, one migration-era article, and one neighborhood map would be entered differently. Teams then enter sample sources for their own community and flag gaps in perspectives or time periods.
