Let's Find Out About Dinosaurs

   We prepared for our Mother's Day Tea for two weeks. We needed to beautifully color a sturdy paper plate, soak it in water and then mold it into the shape of a basket. After the baskets dried, they were filled with lovely flowers.



Here we are experimenting with a dino that grows in water and a large dino egg that is supposed to reveal a surprise inside.  It took a couple of days for our dino to grow from 5 " to 7 1/2 " and two days for a colorful Triceratops to emerge from the dino egg.


Here is Rex the T- Rex


            
              Each of us pretended to be Paleontologists
We are continuing to study Dinosaurs for two more weeks.  So far, we have learned many dino facts and have discussed what it would be like if dinos came back. We are learning several vocabulary words that describe dinosaurs.
