Book Description:
Since every child is fascinated by dinosaurs, what better way is there to teach them about the environment and ecology, helping them connect the past to the present? Through simple science experiments, puppets, art projects, games, creative writing and role play, students learn about prehistoric times, including volcanoes, dinosaurs and fossils. Wouldn't your students enjoy making an ice cream volcano with strawberry lava or a crunch and munch prehistoric forest? Wouldn't they love to discuss the characteristics of the various dinosaurs and learn to call them by their impressive names—apatosaurus, triceratops, etc.? And who wouldn't enjoy playing a fast game of dinosaur tag? Included are patterns for dinosaur puppets, directions for making a dinosaur hat, snacks such as Pterodactyl Eggs in a Nest, and instructions for a Prehistoric Park Diorama. This hands-on romp through prehistory will seem more like just plain fun than education to your students, but they'll come away from the study with a clear picture of prehistoric times and a new appreciation for the environment.
