This week we started our new topic 'Fossil Hunters'.

We have been learning about the life of Mary Anning, a famous paleontologist who discovered the Ichthyosaur. This week we read our core text 'Stone Girl, Bone Girl' and created timelines of key events in Mary Anning's life. 

We also had a go at being paleontologists ourselves and carried out a 'Dino Dig' to see what we could find in the sandpit outside - we found fossils, dinosaur skeletons and dinosaur bones!
