Discovering Fossils
This program takes place in the CN T. rex Gallery at the feet of Scotty, the World’s Largest T. rex. Students learn about different types of fossils, examine replica and real fossils, and discover how Royal Saskatchewan Museum palaeontologists study fossils to learn about Saskatchewan’s past. Students then visit the Earth Science Gallery and act as scientists, comparing the fossils they observe to a set of scientific criteria to determine if they are dinosaurs or not.
