Project Archaeology: Investigating Shelter includes everything you will need to teach archaeology in grades 3-5. The guide incorporates three hallmarks of the Common Core in English Language Arts: (1) it is inquiry-based, (2) it includes performance-based assessments, and (3) it allows students to integrate science and social studies seam-lessly. You and your students can analyze artifacts, rock art, and oral histories from a Northwestern Colorado
Rock Shelter using the basics of scientific inquiry (observation, inference, evidence, and classification).
