Teacher Checklist
__ Chairs for students in the classroom are in three even horizontal rows with desks pushed to the sides and/or back of the room.
__ There is a table or student desk for the presenter at the front.
__ The payment is ready to hand to the presenter, or we know when payment will be mailed because we have already sent to Ancient Artifacts ahead of time any paperwork that our funding source requires (like a District contract or W-9.)
__ The school office staff knows what time the Ancient Artifacts presenter is coming and knows where to send them when they check in.
___ We have a written schedule to give the presenter with teachers names and presentation times (and location of rooms if the presenter will be moving).
__ Students know that the presenter will ask them to sit in the back of the room if they repeatedly interrupt the presentation and distract other students.
__ Although our presenters will work despite having a minor illness, and they are careful to leave early enough to avoid unpredictable Bay Area traffic, teachers should still be prepared with alternate lesson plans in case the Ancient Artifacts prsenter falls ill or is in, or stuck behind, a car accident. Our presenters come in contact with thousands of students (and their viruses) every year, and drive thousands of miles- so while we make every effort not to inconvenience teachers and students, sadly things sometimes happen out of our control.
For the California Gold Rush Only:
__ We can direct the presenter to a faucet to fill the two small gold panning bins.
__ We have a long skinny table or 3-4 student desks up front for the gold panning bins.
__ The children have a piece of paper and something to write with.
__ The teachers can help students tape their gold to their paper during the gold panning/activity portion.
___ There is an area (usually a group of the desks that have been pushed aside) where students can sketch the artifacts as one of their three activity stations.
We look forward to working with your school!
