Construction and Dinosaur Month

This month has been a fun month at school for the kids!
We started out the month with Dinosaurs in Construction.
I made a dinosaur egg out of paper mache. The kids thought it was the coolest thing! I let it sit outside my room for about a week. I put a crack in it to make the kids think the dinosaur was getting ready to hatch. Then, I made a hole in it when they weren't looking and took Michael's BIG dinosaur in. We pretended that the dinosaur escaped and we went around the school to see if we could find the missing dinosaur. Once they found it; they had a lot of fun playing with it.

We also had a dinosaur snack; here are the ingredients:
dead grass (oats) fat (butter), crushed bones (sugar) dirt (cocoa)smashed bugs, swamp water (green food coloring and milk). They tasted like no bake cookies. After we talked about the ingredients; the kids weren't too sure if they would want to try it.

Finished Carpenter Duane came in and talked to my class and another class about being a "construction worker." The kids thought it was sooo cool!

We finished our dinosaur theme with a homemade volcano. It was real easy to make and the kids loved watching it erupt.

As you can tell; I love my job!!!!
