This excellent Common Core reading activity has students analyze excerpts from 4 sources on Alexander the Great. After reading these short passages from Plutarch, Diodorus, Arrian, and an anonymous source, students complete a chart on the validity, purpose, and point of view of each.

This is an excellent project to integrate Common Core analysis of primary and secondary source documents for Ancient History. Each source is concise and can be easily understood by students. The sources take different looks at Alexander the Great, with both positive and negative views included.

A key/teacher's guide is included as well for your convenience.

Thanks for looking!
