Find out what megalodon teeth, ancient sea creatures, fossilized scat, and dinosaur bone fragments look like. Make air dry clay or salt dough mold and trace fossils during the first class. Learners will play fossil guessing games to identify specimens, conduct simple science experiments and watch educational slideshows. They will be introduced to the geologic time scale while making ice age mammal and dinosaur crafts and a variety of at home science and art activities will be provided. The teacher will share her experiences volunteering with paleontologists in Madagascar to excavate dinosaur bones and searching for sharks teeth in Florida. Students may enjoy having a magnifying glass, fossils, and fossil books on hand during class, At the beginning of each class, there will be an opportunity for introductions, sharing, and guided discussion.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
I am offering this class because I am passionate about teaching Earth science. I have experience volunteering with paleontologists excavating dinosaur bones in Madagascar, and have had a lifelong passion for geology, ever since I was growing up in the Rocky Mountains and won my third grade science fair project with a rock cycle experiment!
