Fossil Succession and Geologic Time

Geologic time scale project

Procedure
Cut a piece of adding-machine tape 4.6 meters long. (If you have only a ruler, remember that one meter equals 100 centimeters or 39.37 inches.) If no adding-machine tape is available, you can cut plain paper into long strips, each about 5 centimeters wide, and attach them to make a continuous piece of paper, approximately 4.6 meters long.
Note: You may also create a digital time scale using a word-processing or spreadsheet program of your choice.

Choose this option if you do not have access to a digital camera. Determine an appropriate scale for placing the geologic time scale of 4.6 billion years (4,600 million) on the piece of adding-machine tape. If you need help creating the scale, try the scale calculator.

Plot each era and period on the adding machine tape using the scale you chose from your calculations. As you indicate each era or period, make notes on the paper about significant events that occurred during that time. Events can be biological or geological in nature.

Where to Dig So you want to dig up a dinosaur? Sure, why not? Dinosaurs roamed every continent millions of years ago, so there should be plenty of dinosaur fossils around. What's the catch? Well, you need to know where to look and how to dig.
