Program Description

Event Details

This is a one hour paleo workshop for K-6 students. Madelaine Walker deliver a lecture outlining the basics of fossils. She will discuss how they form, where we find them, what we can learn from them, and what it’s like being a paleoanthropologist (for her). During the lecture, students will make their own fossils by pressing miniature modes of real-life fossils into clay.
