This class will give the chance to students to see what people lived like in the past by exploring different artifacts. We will look at different artifacts, why they may have been used and how they are different from today's tools. The class will cover the following: 1. The artifact. 2. Where the artifact was found. 3. What civilization used it. 4. Characteristic of the Civilization. 5. What was the importance of the artifact. 6. Compare the life of that civilization and the artifact to today's life. Students will have the opportunity to critically think and discuss their opinions. They will discover what life was like in the past and how it compares to life now. This will be a lecture style course and will use a PowerPoint presentations with many opportunities to discuss. If you student just wants to listen that is alright as well, please just message me before hand.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I studied geography at a university in Canada and graduated with a geography degree. A large part of geography is learning how cultures have changed and we do this by studying what past civilizations lived like. Since many ancient civilizations were abandoned a lot of this learning was done by finding artifacts therefore artifacts and history have a large importance in studying geography today. I have studied artifacts intensively throughout my career as a geographer.
During my university career I studied history as well and learned a lot about this topic. This is a basic course and will only be an introduction to artifacts and ancient civilizations. Reviews
