Dinosaurs

As a post-reading activity for the book, Dinosaur Days, Wil was asked to compare and contrast two dinosaurs. He used the Venn diagram to organize his ideas well, and then wrote sentences out of those ideas using the prescribed sentence structure for similarities and differences. Misspelled words were already corrected.


For similarities:
Both the Stegosaurus and the Ankylosaurus are dinosaurs and have plates on their backs.











For difference:
The Stegosaurus’ tail has spikes while the Ankylosaurus’ tail looks like a club. 








Wil is an incoming grade 2 student. Dinosaurs is one the topics he is interested with. In fact, he was able to name other dinosaurs not mentioned in the book read in the clinic.
