Grab your imagination and join me as we follow Jack and Annie throughout their dinosaur adventure. Students will create a paper version of Jack’s backpack to house their completed activities. Students will read, discuss, create art, draw a T-Rex and science projects throughout the week. Students will deepen their vocabulary, gain insight from others’ perspectives, learn to make predictions, summarize main ideas and much more. Optional STEM Challenges will add to the fun. Prior to the start of each class, students will need to read the assigned chapters either with the help of an adult, on their own or utilizing an audiobook.
