We met up at the Science Museum of Minnesota for a class. It was super fun! The girls made observations about replicas of actual artifacts from the vault at the museum.
They learned about and experimented with remote sensing technology used by actual archaeologists, such as taking a magnetic survey, and using a ground penetrating radar to search for hidden artifacts.
Because this class was at the museum, we weren't able to watch the corresponding video, Digging Archaeology, but the girls were able to watch it at home beforehand.
After class, the girls had a couple hours to roam the museum with their friends and families. They did fun things like watch a show about optical illusions, check out the cell lab, watched the Expedition Earth movie, I think I couple girls even sneaked a slushy from the Chomp Cafe.
It was a lot of fun!
Next month, the girls will find out why some people like different foods, and why some people don't. They'll also learn about chemistry from a special guest!
