Are you teaching your students about fossils? If so, this activity packet is for you! Activities include... 1. What do you know about fossils? Students will write 3 facts they already know about fossils. 2. What are fossils? Students will learn the definition of a fossil. Students will also look at/color illustrations of fossils. 3. What information can we learn from studying fossils? Students will learn the importance of studying fossils. Students will also have questions to ponder to deepen their understanding of why studying fossils is important. (The answer to the last question on this page is located at the bottom of the Credits page.) 4. Types of fossils. Students will learn about four types of fossils: imprints, molds, casts, and preserved parts. Each fossil page has an activity to help deepen the students' understanding of how that fossil is formed. 5. The Fossil Song. The Fossil Song is one of my students' favorite songs to sing. They really get into the beat and the lyrics. This song reviews the four types of fossils (imprints, molds, casts, preserved parts). This song goes to the original tune of: Na, Na, Na, Na, Hey, Hey, Hey Goodbye. The artist of the original song is Steam. If you use interactive notebooks, simply have your students cut along the dotted lines on each page. Much of this packet is in black and white. This is to save your printer from using a lot of color, and it lets the students add their own style by coloring it themselves. If you like this activity, you may want to check out my Fossil Diorama activity. It would be the perfect supplement! Enjoy! The Handout Factory

Achar um fóssil é bastante difícil, mas só descobrir um fóssil não é o bastante. Você precisa saber a idade dele.
From the Solnhofen Limestone Formation, Germany, Late Jurassic. Archaeopteryx, meaning "Ancient Wing," was discovered in 1859. Perhaps the most famous fossils in the world, ten skeleton specimens are now known, some amazingly well preserved. Like modern birds, Archaeopteryx had long wing and tail feathers, and has been regarded as the first bird. We now know that complex feathers and other birdlike features were widespread among the meat-eating dinosaurs known as maniraptorans. While Archaeopteryx is recognized as one of the earliest ancestors of modern birds, many maniraptorans were almost as birdlike. The most spectacular Archaeopteryx fossil, the third of its kind to be found, the so-called "Berlin" specimen (of which this is a copy), exhibits strikingly clear feather impressions, including flight feathers on the wings.

Paleontologists have recovered and studied the fossil remains of many thousands of organisms that lived in the past. This fossil record shows that many kinds of extinct organisms were very different in form from any now living. It also shows successions of organisms through time (see faunal succession, law of; geochronology: Determining the relationships of fossils with rock strata), manifesting their transition from one form to another. When an organism dies, it is usually destroyed by other forms of life and by weathering processes. On rare occasions some body parts—particularly hard ones such as shells, teeth, or bones—are preserved by
