We visited the Stoney Gallery where students were invited to examine the exhibits while searching for specific artifacts. Students were organized in small groups each with a parent leader. Parent leaders acted as recorders for the students' thoughts as they examined each artifact.
In their museum packages each group had digital photos of a portion of an artifact.

Their job was to locate the artifact. Through discussion, they determined:

• What was the artifact?
• What was its use?
• Why was it important to the exhibit?

Back at school, each group then presented their discoveries to their classmates.
