Paired Research Challenge

  • LI: to research questions about your dinosaur including their habitat, diet, predators, and protection.

Our challenge was to create a DLO that tells others about the dinosaur we found when we excavated our dinosaur eggs.

Me and my partners found the skeleton of a Brachiosaurus, and I found out that it can stand up to 50 feet tall.

Something I found  interesting was that when a Brachiosaurus stands it can be up to 50 feet tall.

Fossils

  • LI: To understand how scientists know so much about dinosaurs.
  • LI: To recognise different types of fossils and how they are formed.

Our challenge was to create a Google Draw that shows clearly labelled  examples of each fossil type. 

Something that I found interesting was, that trace fossils could be dinosaur feces, and that you could tell what a dinosaur preyed on just by the teeth on another fossil.

Dinosaur Eggs

  • LI: To understand how scientists discover, record and learn from fossils.

Our challenge was to become a paleontoligist who uncovered a rare dinosaur egg fossil. We used Adobe Express to reimagine what a real find might look like. After a quick research challenge about habitat we used that information to create our image.

My partner and I  found the skeleton of a Brachiosaurus, and  we found out that it has a big heart so it can pump blood up to its brain!

This task was fun because at the begining we got to put a random dinosaur into a clay sort of mold, and then we cracked it open.
