We are going to watch a video about fossils from a real paleontologist since we can't go there
*zzzzzzzzz*
Ms. Walter, what are we doing today?
Hey kids, I'm paleontologist Kelly and I'll be answering questions about the fossil records.
The first questions was: where are fossils found?
IN THE VIDEO
But, for smaller fossils, tiny aquatic animals for examples, you can find them layers of rock, lake mud, ocean sediments, and much more.
Well right now were at a deserted construction site. This is a place where you could find a lot of large fossils.
Another questions was: how do fossils form? Well, Permineralization is when empty spaces in a buried bone is filled with minerals from groundwater.
And, casts and molds are formed when organic materials are fully dissolved & only the "mold" is left. An example are leaves.
Fossils can show how old the Earth is and how different forms of life have changed over long periods of time.
Ok, last question: What info can fossil records show or provide?
W-What happened?
They can also show a number of major extinction events. Which is when a large fraction of Earth's plants and animals died.
Well, that's it kids. I hope you learned something. Bye!!
That's great Brandon!
That was amazing, I learned a lot!
