This week we continued working with our “Dinosaurios” unit. We learned about the stegosaurus and how they are the most famous dinosaur from a group of dinosaurs known as Stegosauria. They were all herbivores (plant eaters) with a unique bone that developed into plates and spines along their back and tail. Stegosaurus was alive around 150 million years ago. The stegosaurus’ size was large and heavily built. On average, a fully grown stegosaurus was around 9 meters in length, 4 meters in height and up to nearly 5 metric tons in weight. Although the stegosaurus body was large, their brain size was only around the size of an orange. Their speed was around 5mph, and the stegosaurus also featured tail spikes. They had a great time learning about the stegosaurus dinosaurs. We also danced, sang songs, reviewed and learned new vocabulary:
Hueso-bone,
Fósil-fossil,
Cola-tail,
Cerebro-brain,
Pico-beak,
Plato-plate,
Columna-spine,
Pincho-spike
The kids did a god job with all our stegosaurus dinosaur activities, such as: stegosaurus dinosaur paper plate with the kiddos names on dinosaurs plate spine, cutting in zig zag and to the dinosaur, coloring the dinosaurs with the color the teacher indicates (red, blue, green, orange, and purple)
