              Macro Question: How are fossils formed?

Monday 1st February 2021.

Micro Question 1: How are fossils made?

Watch the video:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/topics/z9bbkqt/articles/z2ym2p3
Let’s recap our previous learning on rocks.

Can you remember the 3 different types of rock?

                        _________________________________________________

                        _________________________________________________

                        _________________________________________________

                                                                Word Bank:

                                                            Sedimentary Igneous
                                                                 Metamorphic

Fossilisation.

A fossil is the preserved remains or traces of a living thing that had
died. The process by which a fossil is formed is called fossilisation.

It’s very rare for living things to become fossilised. Usually after most
animals die their bodies just rot away and nothing is left behind.
However, under certain special conditions, a fossil can form.

After an animal dies, the soft parts of its
body decompose leaving the hard parts, like
the skeleton, behind. This becomes buried by
small particles of rock called sediment.
As more layers of sediment build up on top, the sediment around the
skeleton begins to press together closer and turn to rock.

The bones then start to be broken down by water leaking through the
rock. Minerals in the water replace the bone, leaving a rock shape of the
original bone called a fossil. It can take thousands of years.

Fossilisation only takes place in sedimentary
rocks.

Have a look at the pictures below. Put them in the correct order to show
how fossilisation happens.

           The earth is eroded away by the weather or
           the sea. The rock fossil is exposed and
           discovered.

                                                        Over a very long time, the bones break
                                                        down and leave a space in the earth, like
                                                        an empty mould.

            The skeleton is covered with sand, earth,
            rock or seabed before the bones can
            disappear.

                                                        Minerals slowly fill the space in layers,
                                                        in the exact shape of the bones.
An animal dies. Some parts of the body
                    decay and, usually, only the skeleton is
                    left.

 L.O. I am learning to use drama to show what the characters are
 saying.
 How will I be successful today?                       How did I
                                                       do?
1. I can use my comic strip from yesterday to tell a
      grown up what will happen.
   2. I can write what the men will say to each other
      in order
   3. I can write in 1st person    I, me, we, us
   4. I can label who is speaking smaller man:
                                     larger man:

Look back at your comic strip from yesterday. Can you retell this to an
adult? Think about what you have said the men will say to each other
when they leave the rainforest.

          Write a dialogue (a conversation) between the two men.

              What happened? Why
             did you not cut down the                      You have to listen to
                       tree?                              what happened to me.

The smaller man wondered back out of the rainforest, questioning if
he had really seen all of those animals. Then he found the larger
man, who was confused about why he did not have any wood.

Writing Fluency 1- Possessive Apostrophes

        Possessive apostrophes are used when something belongs to
                           someone/something.

                The football belongs to Ben  Ben’s football

                Notice that the apostrophe goes before the s.

   1. Circle the sentences with correct apostrophes

I like Kate’s bike.

Dylans cat’s are very cute.

Percys’ homework is really good.

Never step on a dog’s tail.
2. Write apostrophes in the correct place.

Sams books are the best.

The girls hat blew off her head.

Kasias car was faster than Jamils.

  3. Write two sentences with possessive apostrophes in your book.

What is a Palaeontologist?

A palaeontologist is
someone who learns
about life on Earth by
studying fossils. They
carefully dig up the
fossils and use them to
learn about how the Earth and living things have changed over time.
However, fossil hunting is a dangerous activity. Palaeontologists have
to take care when searching for fossils. The surfaces that they work on
can be slippery and unstable. There is always a danger too that rocks
will fall from above and hurt the scientists working below. Today,
palaeontologist search where fossils have already been found. They keep
safe by wearing hard hats and using special equipment. New fossils are
usually found by accident by people who are just out having fun at the
beach or going for a walk.

We have learnt a lot from palaeontologists:

      We know that there were animals who lived millions of years ago;
       including the dinosaurs.
      Although nobody has ever seen a dinosaur, scientists have been
       able to work out what they looked like, how they lived and even
       what they ate!
      The climate became colder and he dinosaur were not able to
       survive.
      Dinosaurs became extinct due to a falling asteroid from space.
       When the asteroid fell, it caused the climate (weather) to change.

Read the information above. Answer the questions about
palaeontologists.

    Writing Fluency 2

    Possessive Apostrophes - plurals

  When something belongs to one person/thing, the apostrophe goes before the
                                     s.

                                    e.g. One dog’s bone.

        When something belongs to two or more people/things (plural), the
                          apostrophe goes after the s.

                                    E.g. Two dogs’ bones.

        1. Re write these sentences as I have done for the example.

1. A bike belongs to two girls.                 1. The girls’ bike._____________________

2. A banana belongs to three monkeys.           2. _______________________________

                                                _____________________________

3. The book belongs to one boy.

                                                3. _______________________________
4. The trumpet belongs to John.                 ______________________________

5. The milk belongs to five cats.
                                                4. _______________________________

                                                ____________________________
        2. Put the apostrophes in the correct place.

        The teachers staffroom was full.
                                                5. _______________________________
        The girls names were Tanya and Alisha.

Wednesday 3rd February 2021.

Micro Question 3: What are the 10 most important facts about fossils?

Recap: How are fossils found?

_________________________________________________________________________________

_________________________________________________________________________________

______________________________

What type of rocks do fossils form in?

Sedimentary
Igneous

    Metamorphic

      Today we are going to create a poster for the top 10 fossil facts!

    I’ve given you a list of facts and some pictures below. On the spare sheet

    of A4, make a poster that we can display on our working wall. You can

     use the facts I have given you, or you can research some of your own!

     Remember posters need to be clear, eye-catching and using your best

                                  presentation!

   Without fossils, we wouldn’t know about dinosaurs.

   Fossilised poop is called coprolites. Scientist have found coprolites
    from Tyrannosaurus Rex dinosaurs that contain bits of crushed
    bones.
   It’s pretty unusual to find a whole fossilised animal. Scientists
    usually find shells, bones and teeth instead.
   Scientists have found fossils of feathered dinosaurs.
   Scientists who specialise in the study of fossils are called
    palaeontologists.

   There was a HUGE dinosaur fossil found, the biggest that has ever
    been discovered! It was a fossil from an Argentinosaurus
    dinosaur which was found in Argentina. It was almost 34 meters
    big.

   You might have wondered where the word fossil comes from and
    what does it mean? It actually comes from the Latin word ‘fossus’
    which means “having been dug up”.
   There have been footprints that have turned into fossils too. The
    impressions fill with sediments which then fossilise.

   Fossils can sometimes look like bone – but it’s not! Fossils are made
    from rock.

   A lot of fossils are found in sedimentary rock. This is rock that has
    been formed from things like sand, mud and small pieces of rock.

   Fossils can give scientists lots of information such as where the
    animal might have lived, how old they were, how they died and
    even what they ate!

   Writing Fluency 3

   Possessive plurals – irregulars

Last lesson, we said that for plural nouns (more than one person/thing), a
                  possessive apostrophe should go after the s.

                   This is not the case for certain words.

        For words where the plural does not end in s, we still use ‘s.

                  E.g. Men’s, women’s, children’s, mice’s.
REMEMBER – plurals (without possession) do not require an
  apostrophe e.g. there were five dogs.

  1. Put the apostrophes in the right place.

  The womens football team was better than the mens.

  The two geeses squawks were louder than the five ducks quacks.

  The mans dogs were pulling him because the buthers sausages were
  making the dogs tummies rumble.

  The childrens playground was full of birds poo.

  2. Write two sentences that use irregular possessive apostrophes.

  3. Dictated sentences. Watch the video ‘Year 3 – Writing Fluency –
     Week 5’ on the MPJS YouTube channel.

         Dinosaurs were alive for 150 million years before they were made extinct.
                  Dinosaurs had long, furry coats and were all very small.
  Scientists still don’t know exactly how the dinosaurs died, but one theory is that they
                          were made extinct through climate change.
                    Dinosaurs only ate plants as they were all herbivores.
