Fossils as Evidence

Science · Dinosaurs & Paleontology · conceptual

Analyse and interpret data from fossils to provide evidence of organisms and environments that existed long ago

What mastery looks like

  • Explain that fossils are preserved remains or traces of organisms that lived long ago
  • Use fossil evidence to make inferences about past organisms and their environments
  • Describe how comparing fossils with living organisms helps us understand how life has changed

Check your understanding

If Fossils as Evidence sees a fossil of a fish in a rock on a hillside, can they explain that the area must have been underwater millions of years ago?
