Dear Parents,
During this next week, we will be studying extinct animals and comparing them to animals that are still living today. We will also be learning to draw conclusions about the past using fossils. Below are a few activities that I think you will enjoy.

To the right is a picture of an American Mastodon. Which animal alive today looks like the mastodon?
The first site that I have for you is called What a Bone Can Tell Us. Here you will be able to see pictures of fossils and hopefully learn some interseting facts.
Now lets go on a Fossil Tour! Here you will be able to see more fossils and learn the processes of becoming a fossil, staying a fossil, and also finding a fossil.
At the Endangered Species site, you learn what endangered species are and play a matching game. You will also see pictures of endangered species and learn why they have become endangered.
