Catherine Smyth's comment,

Simply using primary sources does not lead to historical understanding. To develop historical understanding, primary students should ask questions about an event or person and be provided with multiple sources that help them answer the questions they pose. From there, teachers need to scaffold learning to ensure that young students construct a historical narrative of the event or person.
