Junior Paleontologist

Want to look for dinosaur bones, fossils, and links to our ancient past? Then this is the class for you! We will dig for fossils in the rich sedimentary sand and soils around Mission Bay High School. Students will make fossil impressions of leaves, bones, their hands, and more! We will open up geodes, learn about the asteroids that may have come to earth during the time of the dinosaurs, and discover which dinosaurs lived in San Diego during the Cretaceous period. No experience is required.
