PREHISTORY
The prehistory unit will be an examination of life before recorded history. It will involve principles of archaeology, anthropology, timelines and prehistoric eras. During class time, students will do an "archaeology dig" using pot shards, watch a documentary of "Iceman", use timelines to identify major prehistoric eras and see the development of humans over time.
The following will be useful in our endeavor to learn about prehistory:
Ongoing discoveries about Otzi the Iceman!
