Dinosaurs

Let's look for bones,
dig, dig, dig.
Dinosaur bones,
big, big, big.

Back to the lab,
zip, zip, zip.
Clean the bones,
chip, chip, chip.

Put them together,
so, so, so.
We've built a dinosaur,
oh, oh, HO!

Theme:  I choose to do my theme on dinosaurs.  Dinosaurs should be introduced to  a 1st grade classroom.  Some standards that may be introduced are:

1. describe various forms of information left by prehistoric animals and their habitats 

2. classify animals according to physical characteristics   

3. explore how organisms are dependent upon each other for  survival      

4. identify characteristics of plants and animals that allow them to live in specific   environments
