Dinosaurs Story Time: April 3-4, 2017

Books:
Brontorina by James Howe
Dig Those Dinosaurs by Lori Haskins Houran *
Dinosaur Kisses by David Ezra Stein *
Goldilocks and the Three Dinosaurs by Mo Willems
How to Raise a Dinosaur by Natasha Wing
What the Dinosaurs Did Last Night by Refe Tuma *



Craft: Pterodactyl
This week's craft was based on the picture at right.  We simplified it a little by only adding a head and two feet to a small plate cut in half.  We also only used crayons to color the pterodactyl rather than gluing on tissue paper squares.

Literacy Extensions:
- After reading Dig Those Dinosaurs, visit a science museum to look at some actual dinosaur bones.
- Have your child try to "re-write" a familiar story substituting dinosaurs for the main characters like Mo Willems did in Goldilocks and the Three Dinosaurs.
