Throughout each day, pupils will have the opportunity to gather information. They record the evidence they will discover as time detectives by taking notes, taking photographs and using tape recorders. All this material becomes the basis for follow- up work back in school. Hands-on activities with real objects, especially those that come from excavations, have great educational value. Finally they realise the conditions and the needs that led to their creation.
Real objects provide a tangible link to the past.
