Education and Archaeology

Stay tuned as the committee begins to add references to lesson plans for primary and secondary educators to utilize in the classroom. The lesson plans targeted for inclusion are those that have been written by archaeologists and educators. If you are aware of lesson plans that were successful in your classrooms, please let us know and we will review for inclusion on this web site. Thanks and we appreciate any feedback or input!
