Reading the Past: The Eastmere Mystery

by richard@agavien.com

Investigate how a fictional riverside town changed. Compare maps, question source claims and build a careful explanation supported by evidence rather than a convincing-looking picture. For teachers Suggested audience: upper primary and secondary; older learners can explore source limitations in more depth. Eastmere, its archive, dates, quotations and records are fictional teaching material. The pictures are illustrations, not genuine primary sources or evidence of real events. All illustrations are original teaching artwork; diagrams and fictional datasets are authored for this course. Adapt the wording, challenge level and local examples for your learners.
