Fossil Fuels:

Coal and Oil

How they are formed:

Coal is formed from big plants, from a long time ago. When the big plants died, they formed layers at the bottom of swamps and the dirt began to pile up and it formed Coal.

Oil is a fossil fuel that has been formed from a large amount tiny plants and animals such as algae and zooplankton.
