Smithsonian Learning Lab: Fossils: Footprints Across Time

Smithsonian Education presents "Fossils: Footprints Across Time." Teachers can download this teaching package that introduces students to the study of fossils. Students will discover what fossils can teach us about the Earth as it was millions of years ago. In addition, they will also learn how paleontologists organize their findings into time charts to give us a better picture of Earth's geologic history. Students will enjoy the hands-on activities described in the lessons. Teachers will appreciate the student handouts provided, as well as the list of resources.
