Overview: Throughout Theme: Approaches to History, you have been guided through beginning your Project 1: Writing Plan assignment, which you will continue
to work on in Theme 2 and formally submit for completion at the end of Week 4 of the course. This progress check assignment provides you with an important
opportunity to get valuable instructor feedback on the progress you are making and to ensure you are on the right track for your later submission.
Prompt: The second half of Theme: Approaches to History has explored how historians select search terms to locate secondary sources that help them find
answers to their research question. Return to your submission for Progress Check 1 and expand upon your event’s historical significance, describe two secondary
sources you could use to research your event (along with search terms you used to locate those sources), and support your research question with secondary and
primary sources.
Specifically, in this assignment, you will submit the following elements of your Project 1: Writing Plan for review by your instructor:
