After you've attended the Teachers Workshop, your class will participate in the three-hour Youth Field School. Your students will conduct a very realistic simulated archaeological excavation. They'll make wonderful discoveries as they plan, dig, screen, and classify artifacts. And, at no additional charge, they'll all be happily dirty. Check out our site brochures .
Excavation is only the start of archaeology.
Students prepare real site reports and excavation journals that are published on our web site for all the world to see. Visit our Digs area. Teachers who include archaeology in their curriculum quickly discover that it's a great way to teach critical thinking skills. You'll find that it's holistic and interdisciplinary. It's conducive to small group and cooperative learning.
