Students will learn about the family of dinosaurs known as 'True Raptors' in the science community. I will be covering the early family history of these Raptors, from their early days in the Jurassic, to their explosion of diversity in the Cretaceous, how far they spread, what made them such successful hunters, and the largest forms that they ever got. I will also teach the class why this class is called, the True Raptors and what makes them different from the other members of the Maniraptor family tree. The class will be structured to chronologically follow the true raptor family tree, I will be teaching using a mixture of images, documentary clips and slides. I teach interactively, often inquiring to my students, so they have a chance to give input and not feel left out. No prior knowledge of raptors is needed.
Learning Goals
Students will learn about the True Raptor family tree, what made them successful hunters, and how their bodies worked.
