Roar!!! Dinosaurs!!!
The students in room 1 have been learning all about dinosaurs this week! Here they made some beautiful sunset dinosaur paintings! Each child was able to pick a dinosaur of their choosing to trace and cut.
5 Little Dinosaurs!
5 little dinosaurs heard a loud roar.
One ran away than there were 4.
4 little dinosaurs running by a tree.
One stayed to eat leaves, and then there were 3.
Three little dinosaurs deciding what to do.
One went home, and then there were 2.
One little dinosaur wanted some fun.
It went for a swim, and then there were none.
Build a stegosaurus / T-Rex puzzles!
Dinosaur small world play!
A fun mix of sensory and imaginative play.
Dinosaur mini books to practice writing / reading skills.
Keeping their bodies and their minds active.
Learning lots of big vocabulary words too!
Learning the names of the dinosaurs, paying attention to details and taking turns with their peers.
Taking turns with peers, using visual memory skills, learning dinosaur names and making connections.
Once completed the teachers challenged the students to match the dinosaurs to the larger dinosaur of the same color.
for question of the day this past week!
Matching and working together!
The crayon rubbing technique can be repeated over and over using a variety of materials. The process of looking for detail strengthens essential visual discrimination skills, the same skills children use to learn the differences between letters.
Discovering dinosaur bones and fossils!
Dinosaurs are always such a wonder to learn about! These were just a few of the great hands on activities going on this week! When children can use all of their senses, be engaged in various learning style activities, and have discussions with their peers and teachers they can truly be engrossed in their learning.
