Let's Learn babyÖ±²¥app Archaeology
For children ages 4–7. Presented in American Sign Language (ASL) with English captions.
Archaeology helps us learn about the people who lived a long, long time ago. Archaeologists are people who study archaeology. They find things that people left behind long ago, and study the things to learn about how the people lived. In this lesson, you will learn six ASL signs about archaeology, meet an archaeologist, learn about the basics of archaeology, and practice matching broken pieces to the things they used to be.
Meet an Archaeologist
Amelia is a real archaeologist who lives in babyÖ±²¥app. Watch this video to learn how you can be an archaeologist, too! Amelia is deaf, and this video is presented in ASL. A grownup will need to read the English captions for non-signing children.
English and Spanish options coming soon!
Follow-up activity: What was it?
Sometimes when things are left alone for a long time, they break or fall apart. When archaeologists find a piece of something, we look around for other parts and try to figure out what it was before it broke. Print this worksheet at home to practice! You can color in the pictures and match the pieces to the objects they came from.
