Class 3 made Sediment pebbles a few weeks ago…

We made TRACE fossils last week, which is where something leaves a trace that something was there… like Amelie’s necklace (dropped and picked up), or Jack’s dinosaur footprint.

Today, we made BODY fossils.  We almost layered our birthday-boy Barney between layers of salt-dough sediment, but we just didn’t have enough salt dough or big enough baking trays.

However, limpet shells gave us the perfect item to place inbetween, and we hope that in a week’s time they’ll be dry enough to carve out and find again!
