The fossils in this study unit help to illustrate the major processed by which a life form is preserved as a fossil. Some of the specimens will illustrate processes such as petrification, pyritization, molds and casts, and distillation. 15 natural specimens in a compartmented container. Grades 7-12.
Specimens in this collection are representative of the varied life forms which dominated this geologic era. The dinosaurs are well-known life-forms from this era. The 15 specimens are from three major periods: Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous. Grades 7-12.
36" x 24" full color laminated poster.
Fossils were a mystery for thousands of years; then a few pioneering scientists realized that they were the remains or traces of once-living organisms.
Well-known bone-type fossils are actually rocks, the result of a process called mineralization in which minerals replace decaying tissue. This process is shown and explained. All of the other fossil types are also explored.
The rarity of fossils is dramatically presented, and strange things sometimes mistaken for fossils are identified. There’s an introduction to fossil expeditions and a summary of how fossils contribute to our understanding of the earth and life on it.
There is an especially helpful section on the relationships between fossils and geology. It covers the principle of original horizontality, the law of superimposition, the principle of faunal succession, the geological time scale, index fossils, relative dating, and absolute dating.
All of this is conveyed through detailed illustrations showing the processes, excellent photographs of representative specimens, and interesting and informative captions. This poster is a great aid to museum interpretive programs and is extremely beneficial in the study of both life and earth sciences.
This chart has illustrations and actual specimens for students to consult as they identify unlabeled rock specimens. For grades 6-12. 23 1/2" x 15 1/5".
In this step-by-step classroom project students examine and identify individual rock specimens. As each rock specimen is examined and identified, students progress toward the completion of their own rock reference charts. The Teacher's reference chart uses illustrations and actual specimens for students to consult as they identify unlabeled rock specimens. For grades 6-12.
