In this archaeology meets art activity, learners make a mosaic and consider the ways in which art communicates.

In this art-related activity, learners make a coin rubbing—a process similar to what archeologists may do with ancient artifacts. This activity can be used in connection with a history or art lesson.

In this activity about dinosaurs, learners first participate in a group discussion about where and when dinosaurs lived, how big they were, and who studies them and how.

Coins are everyday objects which tell a lot about the people who use them.

Learners create their own piece of history by decorating, shattering, and piecing together a flowerpot "artifact".

In this activity about dinosaurs, learners explore how and why fossils form. First, learners are introduced to dinosaur fossils by reading the book "Bones, Bones, Dinosaur Bones" by Byron Barton.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaurs and fossils by creating a diorama.

In this two-part activity, learners investigate buoyancy, density and surface area as well as biodiversity and the relationship between the structure and function of organisms.

In this activity, learners discover how artists start with a skeleton and turn it into a realistic drawing of a dinosaur.

In this archaeology-related activity, learners build their own time capsule and choose a storage location and a date to reopen it.

Learners compare a life-size drawing of a Tyrannosaurus rex head and a full-size Sinornithosaurus body to understand that dinosaurs varied in size.

In this activity (located on page 2 of PDF), learners sing together a song that gives details about the dinosaur species Suchomimus (pronounced “Sook-o-mime-us”).

In this activity (located on page 5 of PDF), learners work in groups to create dig sites for display.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur fossils and skeletons. First, learners listen to "Tyrannosaurus Rex" by Daniel Cohen to learn about T. rex dinosaurs specifically.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur skeletons, anatomy, and locomotion. Learners compare and contrast dinosaur skeletons and drawings.

In this activity, learners explore how casts of fossilized bones are created and used to learn about dinosaurs. Learners make observations, draw diagrams and share their findings.

In this activity, learners explore the Great Plains.

In this activity, learners rotate through several learning and play stations to explore dinosaurs and paleontologists.

This is a culminating activity which allows learners to summarize what they know about Woodlands Native Americans by creating illustrations and map symbols for a large outline map (see related Activit

In this activity, learners experience firsthand how marine animals' adaptive coloration camouflages them from prey.
