C. Presentation of the Lesson

Now, what we’re going to discuss today is
about the Types of sources of information
mainly the primary sources and secondary
sources of information.

So what are they?

First, let us expound more of what a Primary

Source is?

Primary sources are sources of information

Any idea about Primary Sources?
that we can get directly original content from
an original source.

Exactly, A primary source is an original object

or document; first-hand information. Primary
source is material written or produced in the
time period that you may be investigating.
Primary sources enable the researcher to get
as close as possible to what actually happened
during an historical event or time period.

Let see more of its examples

First on our list are Diaries and Journals.

Have you tried to write diaries or journal

entries?
Yes Ma’am!

Are you familiar with one of the most famous

world literary work Diary of Anne Frank?
Can you share something about it?
Yes! It is a diary where she wrote everything
happened to her back in World war II.
Exactly, The Diary of a Young Girl, also
known as The Diary of Anne Frank, is a book
of the writings from the Dutch language diary
kept by Anne Frank while she was in hiding
for two years with her family during the Nazi

was apprehended in 1944, and Anne Frank It is when we write a story about ourselves.
died of typhus in the Bergen-Belsen
concentration camp in 1945. It is
considered as a primary source because it
was published during the time it happened
and there is the original manuscript of the
entries.

Another entry, is Sarah Morgan Dawson: A

Confederate Girl's Diary. Sarah Morgan
was young woman during the Civil War.
She wrote in her diary or journal what
happened to her and her family during the
war. This is a primary document because
it was first hand. She wrote it at the time it
happened. Yes Ma’am!

Now let’s move on to Autobiographies?

Another example of a Primary Source.

So what is an Autobiography? We’ll try to make one Ma’am.

Very Good! An autobiography is when you

write a story or book about yourself.

One best example if the Long Walk to

freedom by Nelson Mandela. Nelson
Mandela wrote his autobiography about
events in his life called “Long Walk to
Freedom: The Autobiography of Nelson
Mandela. This is a primary document
because he wrote his first hand
experiences.

Before we move on to our next example,

can you all follow?

Ok, if you feel your life as a human

individual is something that can inspire
other people, try to make an autobiography
and dream it to be published someday.

Next, we also have Speeches, especially

Inauguration Speeches. Examples are
Abraham Lincoln’s “Gettysburg Address”
Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream”

Census records information and secondary source is the
Art second-handed information drawn out from
the primary document or information.
Are we clear with Primary Sources of
Information?

Now let’s move on to Secondary Sources.

What do you think sets the demarcation line

between the two?

Very Good! A secondary source is

something written about a primary source.
Secondary sources are written "after the
fact" - that is, at a later date. Usually the
author of a secondary source will have
studied the primary sources of an historical
period or event and will then interpret the
"evidence" found in these sources. You can

The life of Martin Luther King Jr

 lOMoARcPSD|15737262

This is one of secondary document. It was

written about him after he died. And this is
considered as a Secondary Source of
Information.

Yes Ma’am! Now, how about Newspaper and Magazine

articles? Can it be considered as a primary or secondary
sources?

If the article was written at the time something

happened, then it is a primary source. And
again if an article was written late year after
something happened then it is secondary
source.
Think about it like this….
If I tell you something, I am the primary
source. If you tell someone else what I told
you, you are the secondary source.
Secondary source materials can be articles in newspapers,
magazines, books or articles found that evaluate or criticize
someone else's original research.Yes Ma’am!

Are we clear class?

D. Generalization

E. Application

something. All you need toYes Ma’am! do is to evaluate
and label each image or picture as Primary or Secondary
