The 2009 Project Archaeology Teacher Workshop was a success!
Eleven New Hampshire Educators gathered at Manchester Historic Association's Millyard Museum for the workshop. The teachers spent the day doing hands-on activities from the Project Archaeology Teacher's Activity Guide. The activities covered fundamental concepts in Archaeology with lessons such as, "Why is the Past Important?", "Culture Everywhere", and "Chronology: The Time of My Life". After the workshop the teachers were treated with a guided tour of the museum.
The participants left the workshop with a wealth of information on how to properly introduce students to archaeology and had everything they needed to start implementing this interdisciplinary and interactive subject into their classrooms.
