o      Fossils are any proof that life existed in the past. Fossils can be anything. When you hear the word fossils, you probably think of dinosaur bones. Which are pretty common. But there is many different kinds of fossils that are found all over the planet. They can  be found anywhere that life has existed. Most fossils are don't stay in the same place. 
      Lets say that we found a fossil of a plant that thrives in warm weather. Where would you suppose you would find that? You would think that it would be found somewhere warm, but  they are sometimes found in places like Antartica. This is true because the planet is changing. Oceans are becoming bigger and then smaller and the contents are moving. That is why you find fossils all over the planet. 
 
      at the beginning of each chapter we are given a list of vocabulary. It is our job to then make a Quizlet. Quizlet is an online website that you can make a list of vocabulary word with definitions. once you have made the list you then can use them like flash cards,or play games. Some of the games include scatter. which is a game where you have to math the word with the definition. 
      I think that this website is very useful. Not only can you make flash cards to help you study, you can also study very efficently. I think that this is a very good website to use. But I find my self not using it as much as I should be. I think that I just get to lazy and don't have enough time turn on the computer, find the correct list then acually study. I think that for me it would be better if I just used paper flash cards. Then I would actually look up the defintion instead of auto-define. I would also have more time to use them, like on the bus.   
 
Charles Darwin was an amazing man. He came up with the theory of evolution. Evolution is the way that an entire population changes. Charles Darwin made an incredible journey almost completely around the word to learn more about his they of  theory evolution. He went all over the world but mostly in South America.
       While he was on this trip he came up of another idea. This idea is called Natural Selection. One way to describe this is survival of the fittest. he thought that if one animal is born with some unwanted trait it will die off before it can reproduce. This is a good thing because if the orgamism with the unwanted trait it will be passed on to the offspring and  soon that trait can be passed on to the whole population.
