Source Verification in New York
Curriculum teams in New York use this guide to scope source verification across ELA, social studies, and library blocks. Help students confirm who produced information, when it was published, and what evidence supports the claim. Verify all requirements against your state department of education — this page supports planning, not legal compliance.
