Educators will learn first hand how to help students apply archaeological concepts as they investigate a shelter using primary data sources such as maps, artifact illustrations, historic photographs and oral histories. 

In the classroom, teachers can use the nationally-endorsed Project Archaeology curriculum to fulfill many core requirements in social studies, science, mathematics, language arts and art.  Plus, students will discover archaeology and history through engaging hands-on activities. These activities also provide opportunities to reflect on citizenship, build personal ethics and character, and achieve deeper cultural understandings.
