Fossil-Making Has Taurus Class Digging Deep

Around the table (left to right): Benas Juskevicus, Jodie-May Loan, Zayne Khan, Lily Hooker, Lexi Hynes, Ava-Marie Sanderson make fossils.

Taurus Class have been looking at Rocks, Soils and Fossils. This week we discovered how fossils are made. We made our own fossil mixture by adding ingredients such as ‘soil, bones, stones and sand’ and imprinting a dinosaur into it. We also made a storyboard to show the process of how they are made over tens of thousands of years and even used the new technique of pointillism to create a piece of fossil artwork.
