A dinosaur study is beginning in the 2/3 class. Investigations are happening in science and the classroom, while in art class renderings of the dinosaur each student is studying are underway. Each child drew the skeleton of their dinosaur, just like you see in the museums. When the drawing is finished, the students will build a paper mache model.
