Welcome Junior Paleontologists!

Today you will be making a PowerPoint presentation or Publisher brochure about fossils. First you'll need to follow your teacher's directions to open either the PowerPoint Fossil Template or the Publisher Fossil Brochure Template. Use the sites below to find your information. You can copy and paste the information right into your document and then put it in your own words! Once you've found all of your information, format the text so it is attractive and eye catching, but not too distracting! After you format the text it's time to put in some pictures! You can either use clipart or you can download and insert pictures from the Internet. Be sure to cite your sources if you download pictures from the Internet!
