Watch this video and create a comic strip about how a fossil is formed.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
A fossil is the preserved remains or traces of a dead organism. The process by which a fossil is formed is called fossilisation .

It's very rare for living things to become fossilised. Usually after most animals die their bodies just rot away and nothing is left behind. However, under certain special conditions, a fossil can form.

After an animal dies, the soft parts of its body leaving the hard parts, like the skeleton, behind. This becomes buried by small particles of rock called .

As more layers of sediment build up on top, the sediment around the skeleton begins to compact and turn to rock.

The bones then start to be dissolved by water seeping through the rock. Minerals in the water replace the bone, leaving a rock replica of the original bone called a fossil.

This task focusses on metaphors. You can refresh your memory with this song.

Metaphors do not use the words as or like, they say one thing is another e.g.

Miss Farnell is a star
Miss Rowley cried a river of tears.

In this second example, tears aren't really a river, but it is saying she was crying so much it seemed like a river.

Please watch the video on this website to help you understand metaphors some more. You can also complete the activities on there to secure your learning.

Match the beginning and end of the metaphors from the sheet together in your books.

If you're feeling very brave, have a go at writing your own metaphor.
