Echoes of Earth and Sky: Interpreting Utah's Natural and Human History

This is a special two-part workshop!
Join us July 11th at Clark Planetarium and July 18th at NHMU
Join Clark Planetarium and NHMU educators for a special two-day professional development opportunity. Spend a day at Clark Planetarium learning about cultural astronomy in the American Southwest and how ancient people used the sun and stars to track the passage of time and seasons. The following week, a day at NHMU will allow participants to explore ancient interpretations of fossils, how Utah’s unique geography impacts population distribution, and how humans have changed the physical environment of Utah. You’ll receive relicensure credit, lesson plans, other resources for your classroom, and lunch both days!
This workshop focuses on 4th grade Social Studies and Science standards but is open to all Utah public school teachers and educators.
When: Friday, July 11th from 10:30 am to 2:30 pm at Clark Planetarium
and Friday, July 18th from 10:30 am to 2:30 pm at NHMU
