      MA.2.4.1 2000 Construct squares, rectangles, triangles, cubes, and rectangular prisms with appropriate materials. MA.2.4.3 2000 Investigate and predict the result of putting together and taking apart two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes. Extension: The following day, the teacher can place one of the 3D shapes into a paper bag and have students come up one by one and feel the shape in the bag, describe it, and make a final guess of what the shape is. Adaption:  Students who have trouble focusing and retaining information can have a key or sheet to reference that describes each of the shapes (sides, vertices, classification...etc)

      Extension: Students could create an fossil then research that prehistoric animal. Students could find out when they lived, how common the fossils are, and how they became extinct.

      Adaptation: Students could work together in groups to make fossils if resources were limited. Students might make their own fossils, but then work in groups for the research component. This way the ELL and lower English speaking students could handle the research part of the activity.

    Fossils are created when something is preserved over many years resulting in an impression or outline in or on a rock. Some fossils are over a million years old! In this fun activity, kids learn how to make fossils of their own, and get lots measurement and fine motor skills practice along the way.

    I do a similar activity with store bought Play Doh, but these look more authentic and I like the practice with measurement.

      Standard: K.NS.1 - Use all senses as appropriate to observe, sort and describe objects according to their composition and physical properties, such as size, color and shape. Explain these choices to others and generate questions about the objects

    Students learn all about classifying rocks based on the physical attribues that can be observed by holding and looking closely at the rocks.
