공룡 탐정: 선사시대의 미스터리를 밝혀내다!

 Students will learn what makes a dinosaur a dinosaur, when and where they lived, and how they were different from today’s animals. We’ll discuss herbivores vs. carnivores and play an interactive game called “Dinosaur Fact or Fiction.” Students will also draw or describe their favorite dinosaur to start building their detective skills! 

 We’ll meet some of the most famous dinosaurs, from the towering T. rex to the gentle Brachiosaurus. We’ll explore how scientists classify dinosaurs based on their features and diet. Students will play a fun movement game, “Dinosaur Walk,” where they mimic how different dinosaurs moved. Then, they’ll create their own dino footprint fossil using clay or playdough! 

 This week, we’ll become fossil hunters and learn about how fossils form, what they tell us, and how paleontologists dig them up. Students will participate in a mini virtual “fossil dig” using simple materials at home. They’ll also get to imagine and share what it would be like to discover a brand-new dinosaur! 

 What happened to the dinosaurs? We’ll explore different extinction theories, including the asteroid impact and volcanic eruptions. Students will also learn about modern-day animals that are related to dinosaurs. The highlight of this class is the “Design Your Own Dinosaur” challenge—students will create a brand-new species with its own name, habitat, and special features!
