The Fossil Record. 1. Fossils are the remains of organisms that lived in a previous geologic time. 2. The study of these fossils is called paleontology.

1. SWBAT explain how a fossil is created 2. SWBAT identify 5 types of fossils Essential Question: What makes something a fossil?

Using your knowledge on fossils, draw a picture of what a fossil looks like. Explain your drawing in 2-3 sentences

Fossils are created in several different ways. Fossils are more than just dinosaur bones!

npop.com/scienc e/diversityoflife/ fossils/ npop.com/scienc e/diversityoflife/ fossils/ While watching the video list the 5 types of fossils

When something becomes a fossil Fossilization is very rare (does not happen often) A quick burial has to occur!

A body fossil is part of the original organism that’s been preserved (maintains its original state). Examples: Frozen Ice, Tar Pit

Are the most common fossils. They include animal tracks, nests, bite marks

Mold Fossil This occurs when the fossil is buried right away, a rock is formed and when the fossil eventually decays, a hollow print is formed. Cast Fossil When water fills up the mold and hardens. It looks like the original bone or shell

Are fuels formed by natural processes such as decomposition of buried dead organisms. Oil, gas and coal are all formed from remains of fossilized plants and animals

Fossil Records are the sum total of what we know about fossils Paleontology seeks to map out how life evolved across geologic time

Working in groups of 3 or 4, read the passage titled, Fossils and answer the reading comprehension questions. Student will underline where they found the answers. Closing SAN entry – In sentence form, what are 3 things you learned today? Are there any other questions you have about fossils?
