(1) Informational Cubes

• Parents will be instructed that there will be a take home project involving the student to obtain specific information on their assigned dinosaur (assigned dinosaur will also be used for “dino”-ramas and museum artwork).
• Each square of the cube will be filled with specific information (dinosaur name and picture; dinosaur length, weight, and height; picture of dinosaur’s diet; period dinosaur lived in; where its fossils were found; and any fun fact about the dinosaur).
• Students can find the information on their trading cards or any book from the classroom or library.
