My Dinosaur unit has been posted to TPT...
Click on the T-Rex picture above to view my dino unit on Teachers pay teachers.
We made Paleontologists using our pictures. The book inside tells about what we did during our Dinosaur Dig. Sorry... It's hard to see how adorable these are since I had to blur out the faces.
Our shirts that we made for our Dinosaur Dig
On our Dinosaur Dig day the kids got to see what it was like to be a real paleontologist.
They uncovered bones that had been fossilized and they had to chip away the rock (playdoh), clean the bones and then work in groups to put the dinosaur back together.
Part of our book that goes inside our Paleontologists that we made.
Our Triceratops art projects. So stinkin' cute!!!
I forgot to take my camera to school so I brought a few home to snap a picture. Excuse the glare from the floor.
Our triceratops writing.
Oh, my word! We had so much fun with this unit!!! For more pictures from this unit see last week's post.
Looks great!!!!

Your unit looks like a blast! I love your Chit Chat posters. Is this part of your morning routine? It is such a great way to review previous learning!

Very cute t-shirts! Did your kids make them? I had mine make some for the 100th day and oh my, I forgot how messy kids and (non-washable)paint are! But hey, we make sacrifices for cuteness, right?! Love the dinos!
ReplyDeleteF is For First Grade
Can you tell me more about your anchor charts?
ReplyDeleteHow do you have them hung?
What do you use!
I love this and I want to start this.
When will you have the unit available for sale? I want to start Dinosaurs soon.
ReplyDeleteThe unit will be posted by 9:00 Eastern Standard Time tonight. :)
ReplyDeleteThe anchor charts are hung on a clothes line that goes across the back of my room.
The Chit-Chat book is my Morning Message. I always end it with a question so that they can turn and talk to their partner about it. Which is where the "chit-chit" comes in.
Holy you added me to your blogroll!! Thanks so much!! You are like my internet idol and I am so honored that you found my blog blogroll worthy. Thanks for being the inspiration that you are!!
