The Fossil Room
The Year 5 class stepped down from the coach outside the coastal discovery centre. A salty breeze lifted Dylan’s hat, and she clutched it with one hand while holding her notebook in the other. The class had come to learn about creatures that once lived in Australia. Their guide, Lachlan, led them into a cool gallery. A huge fossil skeleton stretched across the room, its long tail almost reaching the doorway. Dylan tilted her head back. “That’s enormous!” she said. “Look closely at the marks in the rock,” Lachlan replied. “They help researchers piece together what happened long ago.” Dylan leaned nearer, careful not to touch. She sketched the fossil and wrote down Lachlan’s explanation. On the way out, she turned for one last look. “I’m going to tell my little brother everything,” she said, smiling.
