Class Assignments - The Principles to Digging up the Past
Diggs stood in front of his class with a stack of books set upon his desk, resting his hand upon them as he grinned. “Good morning, good morning to you class! I’m Professor Davron, but I’d rather you all call me Diggs. Since you are all new to this class and this class is new to you, we have some things to cover! Today we are going to go over some basic principles of archaeology. Starting with the back row up there, I want you all to make your way down, one row at a time and pick up one of these Principles of Archaeology books.” His hand lifted from its place on the books as he continued. “For you, this means homework! But don’t groan! Groaning gets you a delay in our next assignment. Believe you me, you don’t want to put that off because then you’ll miss out on the big fun that is to come! It’s something to be excited for!” Waving the back row down, Diggs stepped to the side and let his students come pick up a book and return to their seats. As everyone settled back into their rightful spots, he grabbed up his own copy. “You can either start the assignment now, or when you head home for the night, but by tomorrow I want a short essay on my desk. I want you to pick one of the principles stated in this book and tell me why you think it’s the most important of them!” The Fey grabbed up his hat that was resting on the edge of the dry erase board, placed it on his head, and tipped it to his class. “Dismissed! Take it how you will!”

Assignment 2 Archaeology 101 - Knowing What it Takes to Dig up the Past
It was a new day and the professor eagerly awaited his students as he stood in front of the dry erase board at the front of the room. As the bodies piled in, Diggs cleared his throat. “Hello again my prized pupils! Today is the next step in educating you on how to dig up the past and learn from it! Now we’re not talking about digging through recent history or your life dramas from when you were younger. Oh no. This is bigger than us all. And that’s why you have to know the proper tools it takes!” Stepping aside, Diggs made a show-host like gesture to the white board. “Before your eyeballs, we have a list of tools that are common at dig sites. Your job is to pick one you think most useful, and explain it to the class. BUT!... the kicker is, you also have think of a ‘tool’” he said as he made a quote unquote motion “that isn’t listed up here and why it is important. For this I’d like to see you kids thinking out of the box! Wow me with your minds! You all have about five or ten minutes before I start calling names, so be ready!”
Rules: ☀Read through the
list that the good professor provided your student and pick the tool your NM/DD thinks is the most important
☀Have your student stand up and present their thoughts on the tool to the professor and class, as well as something not listed in thread. 100 word minimum, please! Repeats are fine!

Assignment 3Archaeology 101 - Literally Digging up the Past
Today was a day that Diggs was exceptionally excited for. He had been planning this day since he got the offer to teach the class at Asterion. It took a lot to do, but he couldn’t wait to announce what was happening to his students. As the lot of them piled into the classroom, he grinned the biggest grin to them all since he started teaching the class. The looks he got from his pupils made him think they were just as excited for whatever was happening. That, or they were worried he was about to turn some sort of ancient bone beast on them all. He really was terrible at reading expressions! “So! I’m sure you all are quite interested in what I have planned for you. Well I won’t keep you waiting, because I’m far too excited myself!” The room quickly filled with murmurs and suggestions on what the nutty professor could be up to now. “Class! We’re going on a dig! I got us setup for a seven day dig out in the Summerforge. Your hard work at learning what it takes is going to pay off!” As the class volume took off, Diggs gave an amused chuckle. “You got three days to get yourselves ready to go! This is the chance of a lifetime for students! Not only will you get to observe, but dig! Get your hands and claws dirty!” Raising his pointer finger up, the classroom grew quiet once more. “This is what you have been working so hard for. I told you that you didn’t want to groan! Now get your outside world life in order and get excited!”
Rules: ☀The assignment this time is a journal! It doesn’t have to be super detailed, but just give a little something about the seven day dig and something they did each day. No word limit, but give a little something of substance and post the response in thread!
