LI: To create a DLO that tells Mary Annings story from her perspective story.
Before we take part in our own dinosaur dig LS2 were challenged to capture the story behind Mary Anning, a pioneering fossil hunter and paleontologist during the early 19th century.
Mary anning was born into a poor family, doubt that she still became one of the most well known Paleontologist world wide, she learnt about fossils and she found her first fossil when she was 12 and that was how she started her career, she sadly died at 1847 and was born at 1799 and the most recent fossil she found before her death was a Plesiosaurus and she was around her 20s.
Mary Anning was a little girl when she found her fossil which was a ichthyosaur where she found it 1811. Mary anning career was being a paleontologist. Her father and her found various types of fossils and she would’ve put them in the museum and would let people study them.
Fossils she found were Trace fossils are fossils are fossils that are the trails or footprints of the animals, what they ate and trails of the these prehistoric animals which is how paleontologists learn what were the dinosaurs diets. The normal fossils are the fossils of these ancient animals and it shows the history and the dinosaurs that ruled the lands then.
