Exploring rocks and fossils in Owls
Owls have enjoyed multiple experiments in science recently. They have explored the features of different rocks including sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic. They compared the permeability, hardness and reaction to acid (vinegar).
Today children have learnt how fossils are created. They used bread, dinosaur toys and water to represent the process of sediment building up around a carcass, creating a cast of the animal and how it filled with water and minerals to create a fossil.
