Today we are learning about the different kinds of neck's and back's the dinosaurs had. We played a math counting game called Stretch for the leaves. We counted all the way to 19! We discussed reasons why the Brontosaurus has such a long neck. The children decided the reason was so he could reach way up to the top of the trees and eat the leaves. For art we finger painted a Brontosaurus and discussed how his neck and back were different then our neck and back. Then we located our neck and back and the Dinosaurs neck and back!
One of the 3 year olds also made the conclusion that the brontosaurus is just like a giraffe because, they both have long necks to reach the trees. All the Children thought that was so silly! How smart?
We also focused on the letter Bb, using our B flowers. We passed them around and made the sound a B makes. We had such a fun day learning about all the different necks and backs! During reading time we read; I dreamt I was a Dinosaur. The children loved it so much they wanted to read it for our nap time story.
