Small Paleontologists

Today Room 4 had fun digging through a pretend fossilized rock to find a dinosaur.  We used tapestry needles and nails as our tools to gently remove the rock.  All the children were thrilled to unearth a dinosaur that they could keep.  A big thank you must go to the  year 7&8 girls who created our fossils for us out of a water and  baking soda recipe.

 Here we are just about to attack our fossils.

I can see a dinosaur emerging.

Look what we found.

Look at the variety of dinosaurs we got.  No two were the same.  There were lots of species e.g. Triceratops, stegosaurus, anklosaurus, apatosaurus, duckbills, pterosaurs and of course
T. Rex .
