How to use it

  • Bring in a toy dinosaur and ask kids what clues tell us what it ate.
  • Measure a dinosaur’s length in the hallway with string.
  • Start with a two-minute “I notice, I wonder” talk about the picture on the sheet.

Watch for

People and dinosaurs never lived at the same time.

Talk about it

  • How do scientists know what dinosaurs looked like?
  • How could we find out if that is true?

Take it further

Hold a class fossil dig with plaster and small toys.
