Our field trip started with a presentation from one of our local Newmont geologist’s.  He taught us about the history of fossil hill and what we would be finding.

We then traveled to fossil hill and collected our fossils.

When we got back to class we classified our fossils according to the characteristics of the ancient sea life.

A huge thank you to Newmont and their geologists, parents that chaperoned, and the other 2nd Grade teachers who made this field trip a huge success.
