we might combine science and mathematics in a dinosaur study‚ where the science component could explore dinosaur habitats‚ and the mathematics component could explore the lengths and heights of dinosaur bodies. Together‚ these two subject areas contribute unique and specific understandings to an overall understanding of dinosaurs. If we take this two-subject area idea a bit further we can combine a variety of subject areas--even within the dinosaur unit. We can study science‚

not easy to really get a "feel" for 4‚600 million years! One way to try to get a "feel" for how big it is‚ is to break the number down into smaller pieces that perhaps we can understand.

life of Earth has increased rapidly over the past decades due to more discoveries being made and a significant expansion of knowledge of scientists and discovery groups. The common fossil‚ Archaeopteryx‚ is a breed of bird-like dinosaurs which is between feathered dinosaurs and modern birds. As of the 19th and early 21st century‚ Archaeopteryx had been accepted by palaeontologists as the oldest known bird of its kind.
