5th Grade Funky Fossil
                               Thinkquest Project

click here to Enter Funky Fossil Website

Our Thinkquest website is an educational website designed for elementary/middle school students who are planning to visit the Gray Fossil Site when the museum is completed.  We began developing the Funky Fossils website in September 2005.  We interviewed Dr. Wallace and his students.  We visited the Gray Fossil Lab in Brown Hall and talked with the paleontologists.  Our website was peer reviewed in April and we submitted the final corrections on May 10th. It is now in an international competition with the winners to be announced on June 21st.  Regardless of whether we win or not, we learned how to develop and design a website in addition to learning a lot about the fossils at the Gray Fossil Site.   

 

Update:  While the team did not "win", they received high marks in several areas!  Way to go, guys!!!
