Science activity

1. Look at the three images above and discuss as many similarities and differences as you can. Think about:

appearance
what they do
where they might be found

2. Then, decide which one is the odd one out and why. Try and give a reason for every answer and there is no wrong answer!

Extra information on the science

There are many ways to record what we see around us – here are just three!

The three images are a crayon rubbing of leaves, a fossilised leaf, and a sketch of a leaf. We know a lot about plants from a long time ago through fossils, like the one in the image. These are like nature’s own recordings of living things!

Challenge

Think of your own way of recording plants outdoors, perhaps using pencils, crayons or paint. Do you get different results depending on what paper you use? Have a look at the Jurassic Coast Fossil Finder here if you'd like to see more examples of fossilised plants.
