Virtual Visit Details
Ideal for any Year 2-6 class, Dr Helen will amaze and inform your class with her large fossil collection, and activities, to help your pupils “think like a palaeontologist”.
You will:
- Learn about different types of fossils.
- Play the Body-Part Game to identify which part of the body a variety of different fossils are from.
- Do a class quiz-game to discover some facts about the fossil creatures, such as: How big was it? What did it eat? How did it move? etc.
- Finish with an “Ask a Palaeontologist” Q&A.
Be a Palaeontologist!
