Dinosaurs!
Task
Welcome time travellers! You will be travelling back in time to explore the land of the dinosaurs and find important information about them. Before continuing, make sure you have your Dinosaur Report ready.
You will be travelling back to over 65,000,000 years ago where you will become a paleontologist and you will be given a task to complete. All information that you gather will be written down in your Dinosaur Report. Once you have figured out all of the information, you will bring your Dinosaur Report back to Dinosaur Headquarters where it will be examined and used by your class. Are you ready to travel back in time? Ready...here we go! |
