Archaeology in the Community can provide resources to help educators bring archaeology into the classroom. To request a professional archaeologist-led workshop for your students, please see our Archaeologist for a Day program and contact us with your needs. If your students have questions about archaeology, you can also take part in our Message to an Archaeologist program.
