Dueling Dinos Article_ April 13th Science
Please click on the link to access an article about a very interesting fossil. This fossil seems to show 2 dinosaurs fighting to the death. Scientists are very excited to study this fossil, which has been ‘hidden’ for 14 years.
After reading the article, please brainstorm:
- Do you think that people should be allowed to buy or keep fossils? Should all fossils be sent to museums? Why?
- Why is it important that we study fossils? What do fossils teach us about ancient history?
- Imagine you found a fossil. Would you give it to a museum? Would you sell it? Would you keep it? Explain.
Please write these answers on a piece of paper, or e-mail your ideas to Ms. Ward.
