2. * We have been reading about fossil hunters and searching for fossils. These are some of the things we have learned.

3. * Fossils are preserved or saved remains that offer proof of plants or animals life from long ago. There are two types of fossils. One type is body fossil. Another type is trace fossils.

4. * For example paleontologists once thought that Tyrannosaurus Rex was the largest meat-eating dinosaur. Then they found a bigger dinosaur than the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

5. * Putting together an animals fossils to create a museum exhibit is very hard! One of the most famous fossils is a Tyrannosaurus Rex named Sue. This dinosaur had only one foot, one arm, and a few ribs are missing. Two make a animatronic model. Start with making a small model from clay or draw it. After a wall you can make a full-sized model.
