Tools of the Trade

This OLogy activity offers kids a fun way to get firsthand knowledge of how archaeologists find lost sites.

Description

In Tools of the Trade, kids are given six cartoon frames, each illustrating a problem the Archaeology team faced in locating a lost mission on St. Catherines Island. When kids select a frame, they are given details about the problem; they are then asked to pick which tool they think helped the team solve the problem. Each time they correctly identify a tool, they are given additional details of the story and the cartoon frame is "colored in." After correctly identifying the tools for all six cartoon frames, they have the option of printing a PDF of the full-color cartoon.
