Before Watching
-
Have the students locate China, the China Sea, Vietnam,
Thailand, and Brunei on a world map or globe and trace possible
trade routes among the countries.
-
Archeologists use evidence to infer facts about a shipwreck and
its contents. As students watch, have them make a chart of the
different kinds of evidence that were collected and what was
inferred from each type.
After Watching
-
Archeologists draw conclusions from all available evidence.
Compare student charts that list what archeologists found and
concluded, and discuss whether students think the inferences
archeologists made were valid. What evidence could the
scientists use to support their theories? What evidence was most
helpful and why? What kinds of information about a culture can
be learned from artifacts like these?
