Multi-Day: Name That Dinosaur 1

In this 12 week class, students will learn the different kinds of dinosaurs and some key facts about each one. For example, which family did they belong to, where did they live, height, weight, length, diet, and period in which they lived.

An example of the weekly plan will include:

Week 1: Velociraptor, Utahraptor, Diplodocus
Week 2: Trooden, Triceratops, Kentrosaurus
Week 3: Torosaurus, Styracosaurus, Oviraptor
Week 4: Protoceratops, Pteranodon, Pachycephalosaurus
Week 5: Ankylosaurus, Archelon, Wuerhosaurus
Week 6: Baryonyx, Brachiosaurus, Struthiomimus
Week 7: Carnotaurus, Chasmoaurus, Spinosaurus
Week 8: Corythosaurus, Dimetrodon, Edmontonia
Week 9: Gallimimus, Iguanodon, Megalosaurus
Week 10: Pachyrhinosaurus, Stegosaurus, Tyrannosaurus REx
Week 11: Allosaurus, Archaeopteryx, Ceratosaurus

Students will receive information prior to class on which dinosaurs we will be visiting. Each student can then research information they find interesting and/or important to bring to class. 

This class will be interactive as each student has the ability to discover information about each dinosaurs and share the information with the other classmates. In fact, it is encouraged for each student to bring a discovery to class. When each student is allowed a voice, in addition to the teacher, the wealth of information can be great. This will be an exciting adventure. 

I like to be a hands-on-to-learning teacher. This class is not about the teacher. The students are the focus and will guide the course. The teacher is just the facilitator. For this class, there is no prior knowledge required to attend this class.

The students will be required to write a paragraph about what they learned after each class. The paragraphs will be uploaded in the teacher tab. The teacher will look over the paragraph and help revise any grammatical, spelling, or punctuation errors.
