Fossils and Paleontologists
In Mrs. Price’s second grade class, students are learning about fossils and paleontologists. Students practiced their excavating skills using a toothpick and a q-tip as their tools to uncover chocolate chips from the surrounding cookie. They are also writing a narrative journal entry all about being a paleontologist and describing the moment they found a fossil. The second graders are including the tools they used, what they did when they found the fossil, where they were, and how they found it.
