    During the American Civil War, the Massachusetts army engages Confederate forces in a bloody battle. Captain Robert Shaw is injured in the battle and assumed lost, but is found alive by a gravedigger named John Rawlins and sent to a field hospital.

    The physical remains of humanly made artifacts form the bulk of the archaeological record. The artifacts that are found by archaeologists may not represent the range of objects actually used because certain materials preserve better than others. For this reason, stone tools and ceramics dominate the archaeological record. Objects made of fabric, cord, skin, and other organic materials no doubt date back to the very earliest archaeological periods but they rarely survive. The introduction of pottery in a culture seems to coincide with the adoption of a sedentary way of life.…

He discusses the curriculum, instruction, assessment, leadership, organization, culture, and community and breaks them down to further define them. In every heading, he says what we will accept and expect while we are building. In every heading, when asked this, he mentions sharing, asking, and listening. If it is mentioned in every heading, it shows how important this is since it is repeated. In the webinar, Tomlin also mentioned several times that as educators, we should remember what we were like during the middle school ages.
