✨New to Outschool? Use code TEACSUS2020 to save $20 on this class!✨ Have fun learning about dinosaurs from all the letters of the alphabet. This class is intended for students with disabilities who have an interest in dinosaurs and don't always have the opportunity to chat with friends about it. The format is the same for every class. We will learn about the main dinosaur for the week as listed below. There will be a summary sheet that includes facts about the dinosaur and an opportunity to draw or color. We will practice our social communication skills in sharing information about the dinosaur of the week or explore other dinosaurs that start with the same letter. September: Alamosaurus Bambiraptor Cryolophosaurus Diplodocus October: Edmontosaurus Futalognkosaurus Gorgosaurus Hypacrosaurus November: Iguanodon Jobaria Kentrosaurus Leaellynasaura December: Maiasaura Neovenator Oviraptor January: Prenoceratops Qantassaurus Rajasaurus Stegosaurus February: Tyrannosaurus Utahraptor Velociraptor March: Wulong Xenoceratops Yutyrannus Zuul April: Favorite Carnivores May: Favorite Herbivores
Learning Goals
