Grade 8 Week 7: Fossils

Our next few weeks we will be taking a look back in time. The Geologic Time Scale chronicles life on Earth and how it changes.



What evidence is there for the current understanding of our geologic time scale?
How do fossils form?
How can we tell the age of a fossil?

Do you have a fossil you would like to share with the class? Worried that it would be lost at school? Submit a photo and all the info you have on the fossil to the classes virtual museum. You can bring the fossil in for a picture or submit a picture.



Week 7 contracts can be found here. Over the next few weeks with WKCE testing and assemblies, schedules will be different. So, this weeks contract will be spread over the next two weeks, due November 12.
