VPS Paleontologists Study Dinosaurs

Oh, to be a paleontologist at 4 and 5 years of age! While studying dinosaurs in Mrs. Jackson and Mrs. Moon's 4's class, the children enjoyed discovering bones in rock (actually, turkey bones in plaster of paris) with visiting science teacher Nannie Brown. The chipping, brushing, charting, and reconstructing made for many smiles from these young paleontologists.
