Dinosaur Museum Projecy

Students groups will be assigned a specific dinosaur. Poster board will contains facts classmates should know about that particular dinosaur. In addition, a model of your dinosaur will be required. When both are complete, a small presentation will be given to the class. We will then have a 5th Grade Dinosaur Museum Day where other students and faculty will visit and learn all about your interesting discoveries and models.
