As a development from their focus on ‘history’ as “Word of the Week”, the Raindrop Room has been very busy discussing dinosaurs. This dig for bones in the sand was very popular and triggered some great comments about their finds and about the work of an archaeologist.
Isaac W.: we have to flick the sand carefully.
Barclay: I found one. The bones are from the legs.
Mason: this dinosaur eats meat and roots. They lived in the Jurassic world.
Ella: these two bones are the same.
Emily: they (archaeologists) dig for bones.
Noah: dinosaurs live in the forest.
Barclay: you slide the sand with the brush. They (archaeologists) hunt for treasure.
Kara: dinosaurs lived a long time ago.
