Aw, Forget it!
No thanks!
Vic was excited about the science project. The assignment was to find a real fossil in the city of Oxford. Vic loved dinosaurs and wanted to find the best fossil ever. The project was due in two weeks, and Vic felt confident. Little did Vic know, this would be the most challenging adventure yet.
Vic's teacher, Mr. Green, explained that finding fossils in the city was difficult. Vic listened carefully, determined to succeed. After school, Vic went to the local library to learn more about where to find fossils. Vic's best friend, Jamal, offered to help. Together, they made a plan.
Vic and Jamal decided to start their search at the construction site near the park. They thought the digging might have unearthed some fossils. However, when they arrived, a big fence blocked their way. A sign read, 'No Trespassing.'
- How are we going to get in? Jamal asked. - We can't give up now, Vic replied, thinking hard. They decided to ask the construction workers for permission. The workers were kind but said it was too dangerous. Vic felt discouraged but didn't want to quit.
Next, they went to the old quarry on the other side of town. They heard it was a good place to find fossils. After hours of searching, they found nothing but rocks. - Maybe we should try somewhere else, Jamal suggested. Vic agreed, feeling a little more hopeful.
The next day, they went to the riverbank, hoping the water might have washed up some fossils. They dug and sifted through the mud but found nothing. - This is harder than I thought, Vic admitted. - We'll find something, Jamal encouraged, but Vic was losing hope.
Just when they thought they had explored everywhere, they remembered the old museum in town. Vic and Jamal hurried over, hoping to get some advice. The museum curator, Mrs. Thompson, was very knowledgeable. - Have you tried the abandoned lot near the train tracks? she asked. - No, we haven't! Vic exclaimed.
Vic and Jamal rushed to the abandoned lot. They started digging but found nothing. - Maybe we should give up, Vic said sadly. - Don't give up yet. Let's try one more time, Jamal urged. Vic nodded, feeling a little better.
Suddenly, Vic had an idea. - What if we look near the old train tracks? Vic suggested. They moved to the edge of the lot and started digging again. This time, they uncovered something hard and shiny. - I think we found something! Vic shouted excitedly.
It was a fossil! Vic and Jamal carefully cleaned it off. They couldn't believe their eyes. - We did it! Vic exclaimed with joy. They brought the fossil to school, proud of their discovery. Vic learned that with courage and determination, anything is possible.
