The Daisies Class enjoyed celebrating Digital Learning week in school. We completed an internet research task where we had to find dinosaur facts. We searched for photographs of the dinosaur with the loudest roar, the sharpest teeth, the dinosaur with the longest tail etc. We also enjoyed visiting the school printer to collect our research.
We used the SMARTboard as a visual timer and timed ourselves to see how long it took us to rescue our trapped dinosaurs. We had to use our fine motor skills to get the elastic bands off of the dinosaur.
We completed a class pictograph voting on our favourite type of dinosaur. The Tyrannosaurus rex was the overall favourite.
Finally, we filled in the blanks using picture symbols to create our own dinosaur story. We read our stories out to our friends and used our descriptions to design a dinosaur on the SMARTboard.
