Fossils

1. Work on your Natural Selection Cartoon
2. Make notes on this video and write a one pager about how a scientist found a fossil that showed part homonid and part ape. What form does the fossil take?  How do they identify human fossils and how do they know they are looking at something that is part human? Click on the picture below or go to this link: http://video.nationalgeographic.com/video/ng-live/berger-lecture-nglive
3.  Next period you will examine our Gladstone Fossil Collection and draw the specimens. Many of the specimens are very small. You may need a disecting microscope or magnifying lens
