This is the one we watched in science, and it is very helpful, it is exactly what we are learning.

I liked this website and it was very helpful, but it is flooded with information so it was hard to pick out the important information.

I agree with Isabel. This was a good video, but it was hard for me to pick out the important things that I actually needed, was too detailed.

This is a very helpful assignment and its what we are learning

I really liked this because during the video it was hard to catch everything that I needed to write down so watching it again helped a lot

It's sad that they destroyed so many bones in this process.

I thought this was a very interesting video! It is very sad how many bones were demolished because of jealousy and robbery.

Cope and Shay's bitter feud caused lots of valuable bones to be destroyed and ended with them losing their credibility and money.

This video was very interesting and gave good information about the bone wars history.

I found this article, informative about the tectonic plates.

Very informative I did not know that much about tectonic plates, great find.

Some of the major tectonic plates are the North American, African, and Antarctic plates. There are only a few major tectonic plates. There are three different boundaries that are formed when the plates move.

Very informative and interesting. I now know a lot more about tectonic plates.

This is really interesting to know. I like how it explaines and shows were tectonic plates are

Gives some good information on how tectonic plates change the world's surface.

I never knew that the plates that form the earth's surface is called the lithosphere. That's cool.

It's very informative and tells how the tectonic plates affect the Earth's surface.

Gives a lot of good info and very interesting.

It is cool how Mount Everest could be taller tomorrow than today. Good information

This article explains how the earth is effected by the tectonic plates.

Very good information Sam. It is very interesting that Mount Everest gets a tiny bit taller every day. The tectonic plates changes the world surface.

This website explains the tectonicplates very well and gives you a better understanding of the earth.

That is very informative! It explains the earth in a better and more interesting way. I learned a lot more about the earth along with some very interesting facts.

This is very informative. The tectonic plates are moving right under our feet! This website tells you how mountains are formed and how the earth moves.

This is very cool information and there are 6 major plates named for each of the continents they are under

The information about the tectonic plates was informative and helped me understand how the 6 plates of the world can create earthquakes and mountains.

The information is cool because I learned there are 6 major plates named for each continent.

This is about the tectonic plates that shaped our planet. P.S. i like how it is not Wikipedia.

This is a very informative and descriptive website good job!

This is a really cool website. It explains how tectonic plates move and change in detail.

This is interesting. It's cool that these plates move around so much. Will the earth become Pangea again one day?

I really liked this website! I cannot believe that there are also smaller tectonic plates, other than the big ones. I never knew that.

The Juan de facu plate is responsible for the volcanoes in the northwest pacific of the United States

I discovered that the plates make up the Earth's outer shell which is called the lithosphere.

Its cool that the 6 major plates are named after 6 continents.

This is a very good article about plate tectonics. It is a good recourse, and reflects the video we watched in class.

Most geologic activity occurs at the edge of the plates.

This is a detailed article about tectonic plates. I recommend this website because it relates directly to what we were talking about in class.

Stromatolites are the Earth's oldest fossils. Some stromatolites are from 3.5 MYA. Stromatolites are all over the world.

This was really cool because the pictures really made you think.

They old things are really cool.

The pictures were very interesting and stromatolites are the oldest fossils. They are about 3 million years old

I can't believe the world may have depended on stromatolites.

I did not know that they are the oldest fossils on Earth. If scientists disagree about the definition, then is there more information to be found about these fossil?

I did not know that stromatolites were the oldest fossil on earth. And some scientists think that they were formed from green and blue algae but that is just one theory. This is a helpful interesting website that will help with our geology unit.

This site taught me that the stromatolites are a rather unknown species that's formation is not too well known.

i thoght it was very interesting that the plates are always moving but it takes us millions of years to see progress.

This is a really good website about stromatolites and retakes to what we are learning.

Great find Christine. this really relates to what we have been learning in science class. Some of the facts that i had learned while reading the sections, even though I had not read all of them because, I was pressed on time, that stromatolites are considered one of the earths oldest fossils besides phylogenetic determination of conserved nucleic acid sequences. Stromatolites are basically considered portals to the knowledge of earths past life, into the deep time of the earths existence, the evolution of different species that are thriving in the modern times. I didn't know that scientist often disagreed on how to classify stromatolites. Some believe that it is a laminated rock that is formed by the growth of blue or green algae.

It is a pretty good website, well it is Wikipedia, but it explained thoroughly what a Apatosaurus was.

This is a great website(of course it is because its Wikipedia) but it has the perfect info about the apatosaurus

When we looked at the website we didn't really explore it much so it was nice to see everything on it.

This has really good information on the apatosaurus. It tells you everything you would need to know about this dinosaur.

This has very good information but I had a lot of trouble understanding it! It has a lot of fancy science words that I don't know. This could be used to learn some more science vocabulary.

Apatosaurus, is a genus of sauropod dinosaur that lived from about 154 to 150 million years ago, during It was one of the largest land animals known to have ever existed, with an average length of 23 m and a mass of at least 16 metric tons.

This is a news paper article about global warming and climate change.

This website tells about the process of climate change, but it also tells about global warming. This is a good website to find facts about climate change and global warming. This website also tells about why 2012 was the hottest year in U.S. history. The map on the bottom of the page is very detailed. It shows a very detailed map about climate change and the global warming.

This article includes many statistics about climate change all over the world, such as, global emissions jumped 3 percent in 2011 and are expected to jump another 2.6 percent in 2012. It also explains why 2012 was the hottest year ever recorded in US history. At the bottom of the page, there is a picture that you can click on that takes you too a map of heat across the US.

The world reached a record high amount of carbon admissions in 2011 sending the amount of carbon in the air up 3 percent, and they are expected to rise another 2.5 percent by 2012, reports are showing that in the most advanced countries admissions amounts are gradually decreasing due to there efforts to reduce carbon admissions. Admissions continue to grow so rapidly that the world has set a goal of keeping the rise under 3.6. For many decades scientists have said they will do something but never have.

This website has basic facets about climate change. I think it's very interesting it goes into how 2012 was one of the hottest years and why. It also talks about the controversy of global warming and shows arguments for both sides. Check it out!

Talks about how Denver is like an onion and the stuff we talked about during class.

Applies Denver onion idea to sandstone below Boulder

This is a very good website about what we talked about in class like about Denver being an onion.

Gives good info in a very simple way.

Wherever rocks of earths crust are visible, geology can be interpreted. This gives good examples and lots of details.

A good website to review everything we learned in class about Denver's geology.

This is really relevant to what we're learning! Only this is boulder... And we're studying Denver but its basically the same so this is really helpful and not so hard to understand!

This site went over Boulder geology in a very advanced and long way. I learned about all the geological periods and the effects they had on life in Boulder. I was not aware that there was a period known as the Pennsylvania Period.

I had no idea what the Pennsylvania period was until now. This is a really helpful site, but a little complex.

This tells you about boulder geology in a complexed way.

Tells about the geology in boulder.

I discovered when reading this that the earliest rocks in Boulder County are 1.7-1.8 billion years old.

Good resource to go to

This is a cool website, but it is not really going to help with our ancient Denver's unit, it has many rocks and is very cool.

The museum has a really good supply of well cared for artifacts. They have a lot of ancient and modern artifacts.

This rock museum website displays many rocks ,minerals, artifacts, and fossils.

The website is full of ancient rocks and artifacts, but I don't think it will help us on Ancient Denver's since crater rock is in Oregon not Denver.

This was a good site to look at different rocks, but not really informative.

This museum has cool artifacts but it doesn't relate to our Ancient Denver's

The rocks were very cool and interesting. But this is useless for what we are learning.

Has a lot of exhibits about rocks. However it is very off topic with stuff about Indian artifacts. It is also in Oregon so it is not that useful

This is a good site if you want to see exhibitions and rocks, but it won't really help us in science and it doesn't really have to do with the geology of Denver.

It was a cool website to look at all the different rocks, but it isn't that informative and its not really going to help on this unit, plus it's in Oregon.

This has nothing to do with what we are learning because its in Oregon. It's really cool to look at the different types of rocks but its not useful to this unit

This website won't help much, it didn't say much about the rock anyways. It told more about the meuseum. Also, it doesn't really have to do with Ancient Denver at all.
