Teachers prepare digital media including primary or historical sources, graphs, data tables, vocabulary, collections of mistakes in student work, art, poems, or news articles. Sources and collections of sources are used to introduce or investigate a topic. The routine structures prompt student self-regulated learning to promote deeper more durable learning. The routine requires the use of a source or collection of sources, either printed or digital. Each routine has both individual and group discussion components and therefore takes longer to implement during lessons. Crop It is available for use digitally and to print on paper. These routines were first developed through the Library of Congress Teaching with Primary Sources Northern Virginia Partnership.
