Jelly Baby Fossils

In Science, as part of their ‘Rocks’ topic, Woodpeckers had fun making jelly baby ‘fossils’. They used slices of bread as layers of sedimentary rock and a jelly baby as a creature. The jelly baby was placed in between and below slices of bread and then squashed - a lot! They squashed it with their hands, heavy books and by sitting on it. After all, they were trying to recreate a process which can take millions of years! When they pulled away the layers of bread, they discovered their ‘fossils’. Ta da!
