Fossils in Antarctica....sounds highly unlikely. But it's true: fossils have been found in Antarctica, and not just any fossils but temperate fossils. But how could fossils of creatures that could have only existed in climates of the equator end up in Antarctica?
    That's because of plate tectonics. According to scientists, Antarctica used to be were Brazil is now millions of years before, when dinosaurs walked the land. That could explain the mystery of the fossils and why fossils of other land dinosaurs have been found on different continents across the ocean. You couldn't expect a land animal to suddenly become a swimming superstar but you could expect the continents to move over millions of years.

In science at the start of a new unit, we make flashcards for the science vocabulary. The only thing is that it is online. We use this website called Quizlet and make our flashcards online. Mrs.Poole puts the vocabulary words on the test, and we have to memorize them. I always get those questions right because Quizlet helps me remember them.

I think Quizlet is really effective because it helps you learn the vocabulary words. I don't think there is anything better than Quizlet. If you try to memorize the words without Quizlet, it would be pretty difficult. If you tried Quizlet to memorize words for a test, then you will pass that test. I recommend Quizlet for preparing for tests because it could help you remember really important things like the definition of words and other things.

In science, we learned that Charles Darwin made the theory of natural selection. He made this theory when he went to the Galapagos Islands. He notice that a bird called the Finch was different than the ones he saw. He noticed that the Finches had different beaks than others. Charles Darwin set out to find out why this happened. In the desert, he noticed that Finches there had a different beak to peck at cactus. He noticed how hot it was and thought that the Finch had adapted to the environment.


Then he met a person named Lyell. Lyell said that the Earth is older than they originally thought. He said that living things probably changed over time. This made Charles Darwin think that the animals had evolved over time. Since the Earth was older, the animals must have evolved. This help Charles Darwin formulate a theory of natural selection.
