Entering grades 2-3
Have you ever wondered how we know what dinosaurs ate? Or how we know what an ancient Egyptian pharaoh looked like? In Time Travelers, students will journey back in search of answers just as paleontologists and archaeologists do.  Starting with the age of the dinosaurs, students will create their own fossils. Then moving onto ancient Egypt, Rome, and Greece, the days will be filled with everything from learning about mummification to designing their own period costumes. Course culminates in a mock dinosaur excavation and archaeological dig.
Tuition includes a $20 materials fee.
