Archaeology Activity

Georgia decorated a flower pot with markers.

Then she put the pot in an old sock.

And she smashed it with a hammer.

Next she put together the pieces best she could with tape.

And then she tried the smallest pieces.

We talked about how it could be more challenging, and realistic, to have someone else decorate the pot so that she did not know what it was suppose to look like. Also, we talked about taking some pieces away and trying to put it together without the missing pieces. We said it was like puting together a jigsaw puzzle without all the pieces, and without seeing the picture on the box. A neat idea to try sometime....
