This term our topic is called, "Battle of the Dinosaurs"

On Tuesday we found a little triceratops and a nest with 2 dinosaur eggs in our corridor.  We have called the little triceratops, Tracey.

We have made her feel safe and welcome in our class.  We made some homes for her, gave her leaves and water and put our classroom dinosaurs on the carpet with her.  We think she is happy.

We are also looking after 2 dinosaur eggs that we found in the garden.  We are keeping them warm and hoping they will hatch.  We are wondering what is inside the eggs

Which is your favourite dinosaur rap ?
We have been watching these dinosaurs raps on CBEEBIES. Which of Andy's raps do you like best ?

GIGANTOSAURUS
We have been reading lots of dinosaur stories and I think you child will love this rhyming story about a dinosaur who plays tricks on his friends

Dinosaurs have been helping us with our Maths work this week.

We have also been learning about the differences between story books and information books. We have been using information books to draw dinosaurs and write about them.

Watch these clips from Andy at CEEBIES to learn some interesting dinosaur facts

The National Museum of Wales, Cardiff - 12th February

Watch out the dinosaurs are coming !
We use the Create my Dino app to make our own dinosaurs.

To end our topic we made our own dinosaur in the classroom using paint and collage materials.  Photographs to follow shortly.
