Learn about the classifications of fossils, how they're created, the types of soil they're found in, and how they're excavated. Students will practice being paleontologists to solve the mystery of a fossil's life, dig for their fossils, and create a log of their fossils after inspecting under a microscope! Finally, we discover how we learn about past people groups and how they lived through archeology. What will people 500 years from now learn about us?
