Dinosaur week is always one of my favorites! The kids are always so excited to explore this theme. Here is a fun center we do to build on our knowledge of word families. I just took one of the "Biggie Patterns" from Scholastic and copied it onto various colored paper. The pattern came as a stegosaurus, so I just cut off the spines and wrote individual letters in those, and the word family on the dinosaur. I made a record sheet and viola, there we have it. We have been working on nonsense vs real words, so in this center, I only have them write the real words.
Here are some pictures of us at centers this week. We did the above center and then also did a "sight word find" with magnifying glasses to help us find those tiny tiny sight words on our dinosaur picture. We are working hard on sentence expanding. I thought it turned out really, really well.
