Our 4th grade students in Mrs. Bridgers’s AIG enrichment class dove deep into the past as they explored the geologic time scale!
Thanks to the Aurora Fossil Museum, students had the incredible opportunity to work with fossiliferous material donated by the Nutrien Phosphate plant. This hands-on experience brought paleontology to life while highlighting the rich natural and cultural history of Eastern North Carolina.
Students were thrilled to discover and examine fossils from ancient sharks, whales, bony fish, and coral—uncovering pieces of history millions of years old right in their classroom!
