We learned this week what the word “prehistoric” means. It means it was a long time ago (Lexi).
Miss Wilson showed us some pictures of what outside would look like when the dinosaurs were about. We noticed that in the scenes:
– there was a sun (Elena)
– there was a beautiful sky (Isla)
– trees (Eden)
– grass (Kyle)
– sunshine (Teigan)
– sand (Eva)
– there were bushes (Orlaith)
We compared how our world is nowadays compared to prehistoric times. Nowadays, we have schools and buildings and cars, whereas these were not about a long time ago.

Our mission was to create a prehistoric scene for dinosaurs. We were given one dinosaur stimulus to create our scene for. If we had a brachiosaurus, we made sure to add trees into the scene because that is what they eat.

First, we were put into groups and discussed what we had to add into our prehistoric scene.
Next, we were given the dinosaur stimulus to create the scene for.
Then, we had to draw a scene with colouring pencils and include all of the things we discussed.
Finally, we got to stamp on the dinosaur sponge shapes into the correct place in the picture. For example, the pterodactyl would go in the sky!

We really enjoyed creating our prehistoric scenes and are all looking forward to learning even more about dinosaurs.
