Tyrannosaurus Rex is possibly the most well known dinosaur due to its huge size and ferocious nature. Thanks to a number of well preserved fossils, the T-Rex has been studied in detail by paleontologists and now by 3B Friends. This week began our own little investigation regarding the T-Rex and things we can discover about them. With a simple conversation about T-Rexes what they HAD, WERE, AND COULD DO we gained insight into the children’s knowledge and understanding of these dinosaurs. Going further, through child-directed activities such as storytelling on paper (illustrating and dictating) and dinosaur play in the mud we made, we learned even more about what 3B knows and thinks regarding T-Rexes. We will continue to explore the dinosaur in various ways going forward, and are especially excited about our upcoming trip to the T-Rex exhibit at The Museum of Natural History.
Happy Birthday Grady!
