A note taking and informative writing Dinosaur presentation? Yeah we can do that

[fossilsonwheels]

We were asked to comeback to 2 classrooms we had done a shark presentation for and do dinos ! Very cool but the teachers threw me a curve. They want a program aimed at teaching kids note taking and writing short essay answers from the notes. This is quite different than just talking about adaptations or the geology of fossils. I happily said yes and now I have two weeks to plan an entirely different theme but this will help us going forward as it gives us another style of program to offer teachers.

 

I am pretty stoked that the teachers though enough of our program to invite us back and have us help the students build some skills. Quite a compliment for a program just getting started I think

Smart teachers! They saw how you captured the kids' attention with your shark program and they see how you can motivate the kids to *want* to take notes so they can remember what you taught them. Nice!

So far the teachers have really liked the programs and they are as surprised by some of the information as the students are !
