Keeping your promises in the promised land Traveling Through Israel with Your Kids By Nicholas V.Martin Israel in the 90’s - it’s definitely not the same place that you and your parents visited when I might have been your tour guide in the 1970’s. I knew things were very different right away when we stopped into a local JNF office in the lower Galilee to get directions to the closest tree planting center and the instructions were: “Drive over into the McDonald’s which is just past the nearby intersection and take the road that goes from the back of their parking lot for a half a kilometer until you see our sign. At the gate, ask for Hassan who will collect the fee and help you select your tree.” As my daughter Jamie and I learned during our three week visit to Israel this past August, fast food, malls and exclusive restaurants with Paris prices have sprung up as quickly as avant-guard recreational activities like snappling into remote canyons and donkey treks in the desert. The first plan my eleven year-old daughter Jamie and I made for our three week summer visit to Israel was the stipulation that each day would include at least one or two historical “learning” experience before we went off for the day’s recreational activity. This is actually a pretty good bargain from the parents’ point of view, since so many of Israel’s historical, archeological and religious sites offer features that are really quite a lot of fun for kids. Much of ancient Jerusalem can be explored now through a labyrinth of underground tunnels and passageways along streets from fifteen centuries ago and into homes dating back to the time of the Second Temple. Learning Jewish history together with the basics of archeology in what kids will describe as a “scary” and “spooky” environment sure beats sitting in a classroom! One should never underestimate the learning capability of a child. By our second day, Jamie could show me what is today’s visible section of the Western Wall from a model of Jerusalem as it was in the time of the Second Temple, and she could differentiate between Herodian and Crusader stone masonry as we walked inside the walls through the Old City.

Timelines, Inc. Historic Preservation Analysis and Planning Archaeology, History, Historic Structures, Preservation Planning, Interpretation, Public Education ARCHAEOLOGY FOR KIDS: PASTFINDERS SUMMER ADVENTURE A paper presented by Ron Dalton at the North Eastern Anthropological Association (NEAA) annual meeting March 1999. With links to resources mentioned in the text. Pastfinder's Summer Adventure is a summer-long educational program for children conducted by the Haverhill Historical Society and Buttonwoods Museum in Haverhill, Massachusetts . This series of thematically organized week-long sessions includes activities that relate to current museum exhibits such as Native American history, early settlement of Haverhill, archaeology, agricultural history, farm life, maritime history, period cooking, and appropriate field trips. The program began in 1997 and now offers hands-on activities each week that relate to local history and place that history within a broader regional context. The Museum's executive director Carolyn Singer requested Timelines, Inc. to provide professional assistance and instruction for approximately 16 children in an introduction to archaeology session for the program. The museum staff and the Haverhill Historical Society secured permission from the owners of the Thomas West House (aka"Elmwood") located on Kenoza Avenue in Haverhill. Dan and Luanne Meader are trustees of the Haverhill Historical Society and own and operate Elmwood Antiques at this location. They are planning to improve or enlarge a garden in their yard near Kenoza Avenue and offered their property to the Museum for the archaeology session. The museum accepted their gracious offer and scheduled the week-long archaeology session with Timelines.

THE HISTORY OF EGYPT About 5,000 years ago, a remarkable way of life, or civilization, grew up along the banks of the Nile River in Egypt. It flourished for over 3,000 years, longer than most other civilizations in the world's history. Egypt is among the most influential of Arab states. It lies between Africa and the Middle East. This ancient country holds a history of over 6,000 years and has many exciting attractions for travelers. The Pyramids, the Sphinx, the tomb of young King Tut are just a few attractions that interest and excite people of all ages. EGYPT'S CREATION Egyptian history begins around 3300 BC. This was when the Egyptians finally had enough symbols in their writing to record history. From 3100 BC inscriptions created a way for later Egyptians. It was also the time when the pharaoh, King Menes, created Egypt by uniting the two parts of Egypt, also known as Upper and Lower Egypt, into a single kingdom. He started Memphis in the north and Abydos in the south as his capital cities. A series of strong and able rulers established a well organized government. The calendar was introduced during this time and the sun-god Re was the most loved god-figure. Over time, authority began to disappear and Egypt was controlled by foreign princes. These rulers introduced the horses and chariots to Egypt.

Ask Dr. Dirt I Want To Be an Archeologist! Q: Dr. Dirt, I want to be an archeologist when I grow up. Should I start digging in my backyard to practice? A: Q: So I don't need to start digging anything up? I'm just sure there are some T-Rex bones under my dog's house. A: If you're lucky enough to be able to participate in a real dig, go for it! There's no better way to see if you like archeology than to get covered in dirt and dust! Check the Join an Archeological Society [LINK to Archeology] page (and with your teacher) to see if there are any digs open to volunteers in your area. Just remember, there are plenty of ways to dig up information on archeology long before you need to dig in the dirt. And by the way, paleontologists, not archeologists, study dinosaur bones. You better leave that dig to your dog. Q: When do you get to officially be an archeologist? A: Well, some archeologists are professionals. They earn their living doing archeology. Other archeologists are avocationals. They do it in their spare time, so this is a two-part answer.

80. A Sample Of Archeological Resources For Educators In this title sites refers to websites, not archeological sites. The kids Reportis a biweekly publication produced by K12 students as a resource for other K http://www.usbr.gov/cultural/00biblio.htm

A SAMPLE OF ARCHEOLOGICAL RESOURCES FOR EDUCATORS Archeologists and educators are realizing that the study of archeology has great potential for motivatingyoung people, instructing them in a wide variety of skills, and inspiring in them an appreciation for the importanceof preserving our nonrenewable cultural heritage. Fortunately, an increasing number of good materials are beingproduced for teachers who want to incorporate archeology into multidisciplinary studies. This is the beginning of a list that the Public Archeologist is compiling. At present it includes a smallselection of learning guides and supplementary resources that have been examined first-hand. Most of the workscited contain references to numerous additional sources. While some of the entries deal with archeological sites inother parts of the United States and the world, with a little effort and creativity, many of the suggested activitiescan be adapted to local situations. Thank You to Virginia Wulfkuhle at the Kansas State Historical Society for permision to use this list. BOOKS Boy Scouts of America Archaeology . Merit Badge Series.
