On Monday, Year 6 were turned into little paleontologists, celebrating Dinosaur Day by creating slides on their favourite dinosaurs. Information included, when they lived, where in the world, some of their behaviours and much more.
How about joining in – here are some additional fun activities you could try:
Draw a dinosaur
Virtual trip
National Geographic Kids – Nat Geo gives children access to prehistoric creatures by species and provides cool facts about each one. (Did you know a T. Rex could easily bend the metal of a car with its jaws?) New studies find that dinosaurs could have possibly been water dwellers (specifically the Spinosaurus). It’s definitely worth a read!
I will leave you with their final challenge. To find a dino joke. See if you can read these without laughing, I was certainly giggling away in class!
Why can’t you hear a pterodactyl go to the loo because it has a silent p – Sophie (6G)
What do you get when dinosaurs crash their cars? Tyrannosaurus wrecks! – Chloe (6R)
What do you call a blind dinosaur? do you think he sore us?
What do you call the most terrifying, terrifying dinosaur ever? A thesaurus! – Nathaniel (6G)
Why did the T-Rex cross the road? Because chickens had not yet evolved! – Jackson (6R)
