The PaleoAdventures Teachers Paleontology Field Course is designed to help teachers in grades K-12 educate their students about Dinosaurs, Paleontology and Earth History. The course is six days long, consisting of lecture, seminars, hands on activities and field work at several Late Cretaceous Dinosaur and other fossil localities in Western South Dakota. Participants are trained in regional geology, stratigraphy, paleo history, classroom techniques using fossils, basic dinosaur biology and anatomy, exploration and excavation techniques, fossil preparation techniques and digsite documentation procedures. Participants are even allowed to keep some of the smaller, common fossils for their own classroom use (up to $50.00/person/day). By the end of the course, participants should have a basic, well-rounded understanding of the Dinosaurs world that they can convey to their students- an understanding that can only be achieved through practical fieldwork under careful supervision.

 Colorado Continuing Education credits may be earned via the Colorado School of Mines and Technology for an additional fee. Trip price includes field manual, handouts, land owners fees, lodging for seven nights, transportation to and from the dig sites and lunch while in the field. Maximum number of participants 15 / minimum number of participants 8. Deadline to join April 31^st, 2008. Must be 18 years old or older to attend.
