8th grade Civics students participate in an archaeological excavation under the direction of Ms. Seab. Simulating actual archaeological digs, students unearth a variety of artifacts and record their findings in an excavation field manual. There are eleven different topics of study for the students to excavate and all are related to classroom studies from this academic year. The specimens were made specifically for this Civics class and include authentic reproductions of documents and other artifacts associated with some of our Nation’s most memorable moments.
