Using Postcards for History Research
According to Kent (2019), "picture postcards represent how someone has chosen to show and define a place and their experience with that place. They show us interpretations of history, as well as history’s record."
Try out these open access resources for some great postcard collections and get your students talking about the past. They can even craft a response on the back of one of the postcards or annotate them digitally and share with other students in a digital mailing activity.
