Discover how archaeology unlocks inquiry, sparks cross-curricular connections, and makes learning tangible. This module makes the case for using archaeology as a powerful teaching tool in K–12 education—connecting dirt to discovery, history to evidence, and artifacts to academic standards.

Get hands-on with archaeology in your classroom—no shovel required. This module equips you with ready-to-teach simulations like Shoebox Digs, Layer Cake Stratigraphy, and Mystery Cemetery investigations. You'll receive student record sheets, journaling templates, and Harvard Project Zero thinking routines that turn every activity into an opportunity for evidence-based inquiry. Designed for K–12 classrooms, these tools build critical thinking, creativity, and connections to real-world learning across subjects and grade levels.

Bring Scripture to life with evidence your students can see, touch, and analyze. In this module, you’ll explore real-world case studies—from the Dead Sea Scrolls to Göbekli Tepe—that connect directly to biblical events and people. Learn how to guide students through scroll comparisons, dig-based journaling, and faith-anchored reflections that build biblical literacy through inquiry. Perfect for K–12 educators who want to ground their teaching in truth, history, and hands-on engagement.

Transform a single dig into a launchpad for every subject you teach. This module shows how archaeology can seamlessly integrate with ELA, science, history, Bible, and STEAM—giving students a unified learning experience rooted in discovery. You’ll get plug-and-play project blueprints, a cross-curricular integration matrix, and creative challenges like LEGO artifact builds, scroll journaling, and decay experiments. It’s not just multidisciplinary—it’s unforgettable.

Now it’s your turn to dig. In this final module, you’ll design a complete archaeology-integrated lesson or unit tailored to your classroom. Using editable planners, rubrics, and reflection tools, you’ll build a cross-curricular experience that connects artifacts to academic standards and inquiry to impact. Finish the module, earn your Digging Deeper Educator Certificate, and walk away with a unit that’s ready to teach—and ready to transform.
