Fossil Detectives
Grab your brushes, detectives! This week kids learn how fossils form, meet Mary Anning and her finds at Lyme Regis, measure a dinosaur in the backyard, stretch out deep time on a timeline, cast salt-dough fossils, and open a Friday dino museum with themselves as curators.
Bigs dig into evidence and argument writing: were dinosaurs feathered, and are birds living dinosaurs?
