Mission Project
Imagine you are walking through the woods when you discover some strange footprints. Dinosaur footprints! Because you are an expert on dinosaurs now, you are able to discover what type of dinosaur prints you have discovered. Now you are going to be famous! But you are going to have to prove yourself first. You need to be able to name and describe some facts about your dinosaur. Hint: Your Instructor and the Enchanted Learning Webpage will help you be able to do this. Mission Steps: 1. Explore the Enchanted Learning website with your instructor. While exploring the website find the dinosaur you will describe. 2. Draw a picture of the dinosaur you discovered. 3. Under the picture write three facts that describe your dinosaur. 4. Share your picture and your facts with the other students and your instructor. Mission Accomplished! Great Job! |
