Do you know your Brontosaurus from your Brachiosaurus? How about your Troodon from your Pterodactyl?
You might not, but the kids in your class certainly do!
This year DK are putting the nation’s favourite passion centre stage with their very first DINOSAUR DAY on 30 June. To get your class ready, find a range of lesson-plans, activities and kahoots by signing up to DK Learning here.
For many children across the world, a love of dinosaurs is the gateway to natural science and history. Which kid doesn’t want to know the size of a T. rex, or how fast velociraptors could run, or if Plesiosaurs were amphibians or reptiles?* (* All very recent questions DK have been asked by kids!)
