I went to Weston Park Museum today. A few years ago, I went to it with my pre-school, but I didn't know as much about fossils then. In this picture, I'm drawing where I can see something hiding in the ground. Archaeologists do that, and palaeontologists do it, too - and I want to be a palaeontologist. An archaeologist might draw shards and things, and a palaeontologist might draw fossils and bones, but an archaeologist might draw bones, too - but they won't be fossilised.

This tree grew in Sheffield. It was 310 million years ago. Back then, it looked like a big swamp - it might have had lots of creatures. I would love to find one of those trees!

There's a plesiosaur and an ichthyosaur. The plesiosaur is the bottom one, it has a long neck. The ichthyosaur is the one on top, it's a bit squished.

My best bit was when we saw the plesiosaur, because we didn't know it was there, and with pre-school we didn't look at it.

    Hello, my name is Toby. I am five years old, and I want to be a palaeontologist. I really like fossils, so I'm writing down everything I do with fossils! My Mummy is doing the typing until I'm a bit older, but she writes everything I say.
