SOTW1 - How Do We Know What Happened?

Here is all we will use and do for the introduction. I will post all the pages and pictures of what we will have done soon.

How Do We Know What Happened?









First, we will read the first part of the intro: What is History? After, we will read this book:



Then, we will do our own family tree. We might also take a look at this book and see which writting project would work for us.



The rest of the week (yes, we will be skipping the other two activities), we will read books on the planet, on fossils, about archeology, on volcanos and do some fun things.

















It looks like a lot but we will take an entire week for this intro. I plan on getting a volcano model and have fun with the kids.

On Friday, we will read the part *What is Archeology* and talk about it. We will finish the week by reading these books:





The next weekend, if the weather permits, we will take the kids on a dinosaur dig weekend a few hours from where we live.

Other activities planned: go look at the archaeology digs in a park a few hours from here, bake some stone cookies (What are they called in English? No idea but I will post the recipe later on) and we will paint beautiful things on some stones.

P.S. I will post pictures of each of our activities, like the family tree, the volcano, the digging and more.
