Today, Year 3 had two palaeontologists come to our school!

 

Socially distanced of course!

We had a video conference with Dr Denver Fowler and Dr Liz Fowler from Dickinson Museum Center in North Dakota.
The children asked them lots of their own questions and they answered them brilliantly!
The children were shown fossils of a Tyrannosaurus Rex’s tooth, an ammonite, a skull of a young Stegosaurus and a full skeleton of a raptor.
They told how we can discover facts about dinosaurs by looking and studying their fossils.
Lots of the children would now like to be a palaeontologist!
