To determine which option is a primary source, we need to understand what primary sources are. Primary sources are original, firsthand accounts or evidence from the time period being studied. They provide direct or immediate evidence about a topic, often created by people who were present during the event or period.
Option A, "A retelling of a tale about how the world was created," is not a primary source because it is a retelling or interpretation of an event or concept. It is likely a secondary source.
Option B, "A story you tell about your experience volunteering," is also not a primary source. It is an account of your personal experience, but it would be considered a primary source if you had documented your experience immediately after it happened, such as through a diary entry or a letter.
Option C, "A textbook description of the Revolutionary war," is not a primary source. Textbooks typically provide a synthesis of information from various primary and secondary sources. Therefore, the information in the textbook is likely based on primary sources, but the textbook itself is not considered a primary source.
Therefore, option A is the correct answer as it is a retelling of a tale about how the world was created and does not provide firsthand or direct evidence from the time period being studied.
