Sue G in PA Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 I did find one unit study online which looks great and includes a lapbook. Anybody here ever done a dino unit study or just a dino study? Any resources you could recommend online or off? I'd prefer Creation-based, but secular is okay b/c I can edit.

Canada_Mom Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 I was just typing up almost the same question as you!!- looks like we posted at almost the same time. My dd6 also wants to study dinosaurs and I'm stumped! :eek: Hopefully we'll get some cool suggestions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elinor Everywhere Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 I did a dinosaur study with my dd when she was 5.5, and I have all the books we read, projects done, and any extras written out in a Word document. It's broken down by topic, ranging from a discussion of the main eras (Triassic, Jurassic, Cretaceous) to the possible reasons for extinction. You could easily omit anything I have that wouldn't agree with your young Earth perspective. I'd be happy to email it to you if you'd like to see it.

Trivium Academy Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 You're welcome, have fun with dinosaurs- it's a great thing to study at this age! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brigitte Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 It is called Adventures with Dinosaurs and lasts 10 weeks. All the lessons are laid out for you. Also, they have tons of books on dinosaurs that are not part of the unit study that you might want to check out. Brigitte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiguirre Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 This is not a book, but don't miss Walking With Dinosaurs. My kids love this show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K&Rs Mom Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 We used some lessons from this unit study: http://www.easyfunschool.com/article2273.html and http://www.learningpage.com has great (free) printables. We did a month or so last summer, and K is already asking when we can study dinosaurs again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
