Sometimes the best way to teach about a subject is to experience it! Most summers the park sponsors a one-week workshop that blends presentations on Ohio's prehistoric past and the science of archeology with hands-on work at an archeological site. This workshop, particularly useful for Ohio third through sixth grade teachers, is taught by National Park Service archeologists. Continuing education credit is available.

Some comments from previous years:

• "As a teacher of Ohio history, I found that I will be able to be more comfortable and more prepared in teaching units on the Moundbuilders."
• "It was a most interesting experience. I really had no expectations coming into the workshop, but I feel I really learned a great deal about what an archeologist does. It's hard work!"
• "Every person I worked with from the park was excellent. Your staff knew what they were talking about and were engaging to listen to. Thank you for a great week!"
