The pedagogical potential of archaeology is widely acknowledged and has led to a multitude of formal and informal resources, either promoting or exploiting this role. Science subjects are an essential part of school curricula. Despite this, archaeological science has not received equal attention, even though it is among the most interdisciplinary fields of archaeology with immense educational potential across both the humanities and sciences. This paper presents an open access guide on ‘Archaeological Science Classroom Activities,’ designed primarily for elementary and junior high school students by the Science and Technology in Archaeology and Culture Research Center of the Cyprus Institute. The proposed hands-on activities present a range of archaeological scientific approaches adopted in human osteoarchaeology, zooarchaeology, archaeobotany, ceramics, archaeometallurgy and ancient glass analysis. The aim of the current paper is to enhance the guide’s international use and invite comments for further future development.

考古学的教学潜力得到广泛认可，并产生了大量的正式和非正式资源，促进或利用这一作用。科学科目是学校课程的重要组成部分。尽管如此，考古科学并没有受到同等重视，尽管它是考古学最跨学科的领域之一，在人文和科学领域具有巨大的教育潜力。本文介绍了“考古科学课堂活动”的开放获取指南，该指南主要由塞浦路斯研究所考古与文化研究中心的科学技术为中小学生设计。拟议的实践活动展示了人类骨考古学、动物考古学、考古植物学、陶瓷、考古冶金和古代玻璃分析。本文件的目的是提高该指南的国际使用，并为未来的进一步发展征求意见。
