Dinosaur Project: You're the Teacher!

You will be divided into groups of 2-3. I will decide who goes in what group. Each group will be assigned a specific dinosaur. You will work together to make a poster board that contains everything your classmates should know about that particular dinosaur. When the poster board is complete, you will give a small presentation to the class, as if you were the teacher, teaching the students about your particular dinosaur.
