Fun Friday

Happy Friday!  It's Shelly from Smiling and Shining in Second Grade.  My students love learning about dinosaurs.  Future paleontologists will LOVE creating these dinosaur fossils.

 All you need is some modeling magic and some dinosaurs skeleton toys.  You can get the modeling clay at Michael's or Jo-Ann's Fabric store.  The skeleton toys are from Amazon.

The students shape the modeling magic into a pancake.  Then they make impressions with the skeletons.  After it dries, they paint the modeling clay with coffee to give it a brownish tint.

   We practice our math fact by playing Three in a Row.  

I  like to read the book called If the Dinosaurs Came Back by Bernard Most.  We do a writing activity and write about what we would do if the dinosaurs came back and then we make a drawing like the book.

         

What are some dinosaur activities you do with your students?
