How do we understand the past and solve its mysteries? How do different cultures throughout the world think about time and their place within it? Campers in this week’s session will learn about scientific methods, storytelling principles, and various ways of documenting the past to better understand the present and help shape the future. Through mock digs and archeological floatation, campers can put the scientific method into practice. Through storytelling, they’ll learn the power of the oral tradition. Campers will be taught how to incorporate both of these perspectives through games and activities, and learn how to better connect with their own culture.
