Make a Dinosaur Your Way!

Kids are encouraged to build a dinosaur and given some suggestions for materials and tools. They are not given exact instructions. Rather, they are given some guidance and lots of freedom to use their imagination. And, while there are some photos for inspiration, they don’t make the reader feel as if the dinosaur models pictured are the only way to create. This open-ended instructional text is a nice addition to the maker movement in your library.

About Candy Ranney

Candy is an elementary school librarian in Shelton, WA at the school where she was a student (so many years ago!). Her library is unique in that she brings her background and love of biology to her students in many ways. Not only does she have an awesome selection of science books; she also has a beaver, bobcat and mink sitting on her shelves and a variety of jarred specimens for her students to study. When she's not in the library, she is taking care of her baby trees on her tree farm and hanging out with her family and many pets.
