Скачать или смотреть Hall of Fossils-Deep Time Virtual Tour for Students | National Museum of Natural History

Explore some of the specimens in the National Museum of Natural History's 31,000-square-foot fossil hall, which explores the epic story of how Earth's distant past is connected to the present and informs our future.

This virtual tour of the David H. Koch Hall of Fossils – Deep Time at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History will teach students how to think like a paleontologist. Museum Educator Maggy Benson hosts our tour as we take a close look at some of the most incredible fossil animals in the hall, like dimetrodon, Camptosaurus, and the incredible battling T. rex and Triceratops. Throughout the tour, Deep Time Educator Amy Peterson will use these animals to show viewers how to make close observations, form a hypothesis, and use information from fossils to understand more about extinct creatures. Next, Maggy visits Fossil Preparator Michelle Pinsdorf in the Fossil Prep Lab to see and learn about how fossils are prepared for research and display.
