Cayce Campbell's Washington Center at Hollis class has been learning about dinosaurs. They have taken several picture walks through books such as "Dazzle the Dinosaur" by Marcus Pfister and "Dinosaur Roar."

The students used a voice output device to distinguish between a big dinosaur and a little dinosaur. The class discussed the word "paleontologist," which is a scientist who studies dinosaurs. Students have pretended to be a paleontologist as they created several dinosaur fossil.

In another sensory activity, students used their handprints to create a Stegosaurus with spines down its back. As a summary activity, students made handprint fossils by using modeling clay to be painted and sent home as a special reminder of the dinosaur sensory unit.
