Video: What is Archaeology? To begin today let's learn more about the job of an archaeologist by watching the short video below.
Studying the Distant Past: Vocabulary Study Now let's continue learning some of the key vocabulary and concepts related
to archaeology and the study of the distant past by using our Studying the Distant Past - Cognitive Content Dictionary, which can still be located in your Social Studies Google Classroom.
Guided Reading: Studying the Distant Past Next, we are going to read excerpts from your text book related to how
archaeologists study the origins of humankind. As we read together and
in small groups, I would like you to recognize the text features that
the textbook utilizes to organize information and help you find what you
need. Notice, for example, how the textbook uses boldface blue type to
point out new words, as well as larger type to show titles.
Additionally, special information appears alongside the main text.

Homework Remember to complete and 'turn in' your Studying the Distant Past - Cognitive Content Dictionary by this Friday, August 21 in order to receive full credit.
