My teaching style can be described as interactive Learners will interact with me through lectures, video clips and discussion There is no required knowledge of the prehistoric animals in question as this is more to show students what they can find if they plan to go digging in this location.
Learning Goals
Students will learn about the ancient creatures fossilized in the Kem Kem beds, from gigantic human sized lungfish and salmon, to the famous sail backed dinosaur Spinosaurus.
