Curriculum Level: K-5
In groups of 3-5, students will analyze models of 3-D artifacts using the UNC Research Laboratories of Archaeology’s Ancient North Carolinians website. During analysis, students will make observations of their artifact–describing its characteristics, and using those descriptions to make predictions about what the artifact may have been used for. Students will share their predictions with the teacher, learn more about their particular artifact through a reading passage, and will record their findings in a slideshow to be shared with their classmates.
