April - Jurassic Park

Explore the land before time! Imagine living in a time when dinosaurs roamed the Earth. What have paleontologists learned about the great beasts that roamed the Earth millions of years ago? What could we learn of these creatures that lives so long ago?
We will focus on fun and adventure this month as we learn about the fascinating dinosaurs. We will learn to be resourceful, because it's never too late to preserve our natural resources before they become extinct like the dinosaurs.
Where did all the dinosaurs go?
No one knows for sure what happened to them or what they were like when they were alive. Did they make noise? Did they take care of their offspring? What did they like to eat? We can only wonder and, using the resources available to us, try to piece together the many pieces of the puzzles.
