After hearing about Lucky, a local dog who had escaped and dug up a bone in our woods area, we were keen to become archaeologists and see if we could find bones of our own.
And would you believe it...we found dinosaur bones!!!!
The tricky part was putting the bones back together again!!
We have had an extremely exciting week, which began with us finding mysterious (and very large) footprints on the floor in the classroom. Not only that, the tables were upturned, there were cauliflower leaves strewn everywhere and then, hiding under a table, was an egg and a note...
After much animated discussion, it was decided that we needed to make a comfortable nest for the egg, so we set out to do just that...
We wrote back to the dinosaur to let her know what we would do...
Then we watched and waited...
We checked to hear the heartbeat and took great care of it...
Until one morning we arrived in school to find the egg was empty and a note from Dino, letting us know that the egg had hatched in the night and they had returned home.
We were so happy that the dinosaur had hatched! We couldn't wait to build our time machine to visit the baby triceratops straight away...
See you soon, we are off on a dinosaur adventure x
We have come back very exited to be with our friends, as you can see...
