In preparation for our field trip, our class took a crash course in the history of dinosaurs in the Pioneer Valley. We learned how dinosaur tracks become fossilized, and about how a young farmer boy brought forward the first tracks. We gained appreciation for the role that Edward Hitchcock played in the identification and collection of tracks from our valley and beyond. Here are a few pictures of our students visiting the Amherst College Museum of Natural History.
