Today we had so much fun learning about Jurassic Plants! We played two games that focused on plants; Top or Bottom, and Dark Leaves. We also made our very own flashcards that has our colors, numbers, shape, and letters for the month. We also enjoyed the snow and went outside at 8:30am til 9:00am.
Top or Bottom is a brain box before playing this game we discussed the different parts of plants. FACT: Scientist have found roots in some dinosaurs skeletons and leaves in other skeletons. So this means some dinosaurs must have ate plants. The children said "It was because they think plants are yummy!"

| One, two, three, go! |
 |
| Throwing it way up! |
For this game the children get to take turns, and throw the brain box high into the air. Once it falls down you read the action that the children will do.
 |
| Such as make an OVAL with your hands and legs! |
We also played Dark leaves! We discussed, how do you think dinosaurs chose which leaves to eat? Also, how do you decide your favorite food?
We worked together to put the leaves in order from lightest to darkest. Then darkest to lightest.
Once we finished each child got to pick the leaf that he or she would eat if they were a dinosaur.
For art this morning we made flashcards, and talked about how dinosaurs fed their babies. We believe they went looking for food and brought it back to their nest!
Show and Tell is tomorrow, please bring in your item that is or reminds you of a dinosaur!
