Dinosaur discoveries for Year 1

Year 1 celebrated Mary Anning Day. A special visitor came to tell us about her life, and also to share some wonderful resources. The boys made their own curiosities using clay and drew fossils with chalk.

Our visitor explained how fossils are made and demonstrated this using water, rocks, and sand. The boys learnt that Mary Anning first discovered  ‘ichthyosaur’ and later went on to unearth many more fossils!
