Time Seekers' Virtual School Visits are a great way to enrich your history topics, especially during times when arranging school trips or in-school visitors may not be possible. Delivered through Zoom, these sessions are suitable for years 2-6 and will give your children the opportunity to ask questions of an archaeologist from their classroom chairs.
Each session will include the following;
Meet the archaeologist you will be speaking to and find out more about them and their archaeological background.
This talk will focus on archaeology in general or on a specific history topic. It will include a presentation on the chosen subject, pictures of key archaeological sites and a look at a range of artefacts relating to the period of interest.
Students can ask questions about the topic they are studying or about archaeology in general. It is advisable for younger children to think of questions they would like to ask prior to the online session.

| Zoom | Download Zoom to a laptop or computer which is linked with a smart board, interactive white board or other viewing screen. |

| Web Cam | Sessions can run without a web cam but we can provide a better experience if the archaeologist is able to see the class. To use a web cam, enable the video from the Zoom controls and position the webcam near to or above the viewing screen. |
Prior to an online visit, a quick Zoom Check can be held between Time Seekers and the school to ensure all links, sound and video are working correctly.
