Junior Digging For Dinos Engineering Class
There has been an amazing discovery! Paleontologists have just uncovered a million-year-old dig site that is full of fossils! These fossils include dinosaur bones, imprints, eggs, and more! Your child’s help is needed to excavate these fossils and move them to museums for kids all over the world to learn about. In these lessons, students will learn about engineering, mathematics, dinosaurs, and fossils, while advancing their literacy skills through a variety of read alouds. They will work as paleontologists and engineers while using the EFK Engineering Design Process to design and build solutions to a variety of engineering challenges.
