Elaina's Fossil

How I made a fossil: I had  a shell and we made something like cement. Then we made another part of my fossil. After we cracked it open there were two different fossils. Real fossils are made by heat and pressure. Things are pressed between mud and soil. Many kinds of animals can be made in fossils.

Teagan's Fossil

Today we made the second part of the fossil. We took my pencil to make the fossil. We used vaseline and then we put some of the plastern that makes the fossil. We took the second part of the fossil off. The fossil can be made by heat and pressure. There many kinds of fossil in the nature. There are fossils of bones, leaves, rocks, twigs, branches and sea shells. My fossil was a pencil.

Cookie Mining



Today we broke apart cookies to see all the minerals inside. A cookie is like a rock it has a lot of minerals inside. A mineral is like a chocolate chip because it is chocolate all the way through. We liked this activity because it was fun taking all the minerals out of the cookie. The cookie was delicious! We have also tested the hardness of different minerals using a steel nail, a penny and a finger nail. We found out that not all minerals have the same hardness. We did a streak test to see if the mineral left a mark behind.
