Week in reviewThis week was DINO-mite! We learned all about dinosaurs and paleontologists. Did you know that paleontologists can tell what a dinosaur ate, how it traveled, and where it lived, all through the fossils they find? We learned that dinosaurs can be carnivores or herbivores and we know how to distinguish them by their legs, feet, teeth, and necks. On Friday, we were paleontologists digging for chocolate chip fossils! We made dinosaur patterns, sentences, and graph too! We also read the book, “The Mine-osaur”. We talked about good and bad manners and came up with new names for dinosaurs and made another wonderful class book!
