On this page, you’ll find information about archaeological sites of different time periods from across the Whiteadder Project study area, and ideas for how to use these sites as a springboard for learning.

The content provided here was created during spring/summer 2020, when lockdown restrictions were in place. Given current uncertainty over what the coming weeks and months will hold, most of the activities require few or no supplies beyond a pencil and paper, with the intention that they can be carried out at home should schools close again.

In the ‘Experiences and Outcomes‘ document, you’ll find a table which shows where the suggested activities might link in with the Curriculum for Excellence.

We hope you’ll enjoy exploring the archaeology of the Whiteadder with your learners. Please get in touch if you have any queries, comments or suggestions.
