Today we visted the library and Mrs Rennie read us a great story called Gator. We are also learning about research skills. We read a big book about dinosaurs called: "Digging for dinosaurs". We came up with key words(which are words related to dinosaurs) and used the table of contents and index to see if the book contained these key words and then we read the book to see if answered these questions: How do we know so much about dinosaurs? Who finds the evidence about dinosaurs? What eveidence has been found? What does it tell us about dinosaurs? What tools can we use to help us find answers to these questions? The book did answer these questions. We found out a new word: Paleontologist - which is the name for a scientist who looks for dinosaur bones.
Next week we are going to make our own fossils.
