In Lydia’ class, our science topic has been centred around fossils! In this lesson, we worked collaboratively to make salt dough fossils. We had to use our maths knowledge to carefully measure the ingredients to ensure that our dough would be the correct consistency.

We then used plastic animals, cocktail sticks and paper straws to create our design/imprints. We thoroughly enjoyed this lesson and hope to do it again soon!
