In Term 3 Primary 3/2 have been learning about dinosaurs. This week we have been looking at dinosaur fossils, what they are and how they are made. To develop our understanding of this we recreated how fossils can be made by layering slices of bread (to represent soil, sand, rocks, etc) one of top of the other and inserting a dinosaur shape. We then squashed down each layer as it was put on to show the pressure that layering of soil could do. We carefully took off each slice and found our fossil shape at the bottom.
