    The Reading Like a Historian curriculum engages students in historical inquiry. Each lesson revolves around a central historical question and features sets of primary documents modified for groups of students with diverse reading skills and abilities. This curriculum teaches students how to investigate historical questions employing reading strategies such as sourcing, contextualizing, corroborating, and close reading. Instead of memorizing historical facts, students evaluate the trustworthiness of multiple perspectives on issues from King Philip's War to the Montgomery Bus Boycott, and make historical claims backed by documentary evidence.

The Relaciones Geográficas, a collection of maps made mostly by indigenous priests for a report to Spanish king in the 16th century, are a must-see. Maps such as Zumpango and Culhuacán show native mapping symbols (horseshoe, footprint, pictographs) mixed with European elements (perspective buildings, alphabetic writing). "
