Very nice, useful sheet that I used to pre-assess my student's ability to analyze multiple accounts of the same event. It is SO helpful to have content related to this newer strand in our curriculum.

Was hoping for something that was NOT comparing description to description.

Mark Aaron (TpT Seller)
The final question on this printable is "Which source has a point of view on Alexander’s death that is the most believable or convincing to you? Why did you choose that source?" That is very analytical from my viewpoint and goes beyond comparing description to description. You cannot analyze before you compare, can you? That is what the CCSS asks students to do. Nevertheless, I want to you be happy. Please send me your email address via "Ask a Question" above and I will send you another printable targeting the same standard that may be more to your liking. Thanks for your purchase and your feedback!

After looking for DAYS on the internet for multiple accounts, I finally found this!! It was fun and helpful!

I can tell by your ALL CAPS that you were frustrated with the internet search results. Our time as educators is too valuable to sit on Google search and click useless links. I used to do that too until TpT came along :)

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Subject Area:
I have been an upper elementary and middle school teacher for 31 wonderful years and have loved every minute of it. For me, content is the key. I believe the plans, printables, and worksheets I have created have above all else high-quality content, but are also practical and ready-to-use. Each item I sell has been used in my classroom or by a part of my teaching team (teacher-tested) and is clearly written. I won't put any lesson or idea on TeachersPayTeachers unless I am certain YOU can understand it, teach with it today, and that it has value for children.
