DINOSAUR MOVEMENT/ACTIVITY CHALLENGE - Cartoon
Have great fun with your children whilst all pretending to be dinosaurs with this set of 8 Dinosaur Activity Challenge cards. Perhaps children could stand in a circle around the pile of cards and take turns to pick one for everyone to do. Cards could equally be shrunk down and placed on a key ring to take out on adventures or featured on an indoor or outdoor display board and referred to with everyone carrying out the activity on floor space in front. Once the children get to know the cards they will be able to relate the action to the picture without necessarily needing the card read to them...For example an adult may be able to simply hold up a card and everyone will be able to do the activity together! Great for physical development, descriptive language, understanding the world and turn taking.

DINOSAUR WORD MAT
‘Dinosaur’ word mat. Why not use in conjunction with our ‘Dinosaur’ word cards? Includes 10 different prehistoric creatures (8 dinosaurs, 1 marine reptile and 1 flying reptile). Can be used as part of a display or activities. Endless discussions can be engaged in describing these creatures. For example whether they are herbivores or carnivores, physical attributes such as length of their necks, armoured tails, horns, fins, wings, plates, number of legs, etc. Older children can be challenged to further contemplate ‘how’ and ‘why’ questions building on these observations. For example ‘Why do you think the herbivore ankylosaurus may have had an armoured tail?’…or ‘How do you think the brachiosaurus reached to the top of the trees for its food?’

DINOSAUR WORD CARDS
‘Dinosaur’ word cards. Why not use in conjunction with our ‘Dinosaur’ word mat? Includes 10 different prehistoric creatures (8 dinosaurs, 1 marine reptile and 1 flying reptile). Can be used as part of a display or activities. Why not hide them in a sand tray and see which dinosaurs the children can uncover? You could also play sorting games such as organising the cards into one pile of herbivores and the other carnivores. What about sorting by number of legs or whether the dinosaur has an armoured tail?

DINOSAUR PICTURE SNAP CARDS
Expand upon children’s knowledge of dinosaurs whilst playing a fun game of snap (or a memory game of ‘picking up pairs’) with this set of snap cards. The cards are made with a tab/patterned back which can be folded before lamination in order to strengthen the final product. This also means that when turned over, the picture on the front can not be seen.

DINOSAUR COUNTING PUZZLES 1-10
Why not set up an invitation to play using these dinosaur counting puzzles? Select those appropriate for your children (1-10 available) and allow them to match the number with the corresponding number of dinosaurs. Each pair has a different way of connecting as a puzzle for the children to match and so even if they haven’t learnt what the number looks like yet, but are beginning to say the numbers in order, this can be a fun way to introduce them to new challenges. Once the puzzles are complete, why not line the numbers up in order and count together? If your children would enjoy a further game, leave out a number and see if they can spot which one is missing from the sequence. Puzzles could also be used as a fine motor control/counting activity if left uncut. Children could be given an appropriate number for their learning and encouraged to place objects on the dinosaurs, counting as they go.

DINOSAUR SOUNDS - PHASE 1 PHONICS ACTIVITY
These card prompts are for encouraging the children to think of what sounds these dinosaurs might have made.
• Tell the children that no-one knows for sure what these dinosaurs sounded like, so we need some great ideas.
• When showing these card prompts draw attention to whether the dinosaur is small, large, or gigantic! Will this affect the sound?
• How about whether the dinosaur looks fierce or timid… does this change what they think?
An additional sound activity could be to think about the sounds the dinosaurs’ footsteps would make, paying attention to the size of the dinosaur and how heavy it would have been.

Dinosaur themed size ordering pictures. Includes Brachiosaurus, Pterodactyl, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Parasaurolophus, Stegosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Ankylosaurus & Plesiosaur. Intended to be cut out (and ideally laminated) for use by children in repeatable size ordering activities. If you have access to a fuzzy felt board, why not stick velcro tabs on the back so that children can move them around on the board? Alternatively use them as a cut and stick activity (to also strengthen fine motor skills) for the children to take home and discuss with their families using words such as ‘small, smaller, smallest, big, bigger, biggest’.

DINOSAUR TALLY CHART/CHECK LIST
Dinosaur themed tally chart. Your children will love to use this as part of an out and about hunt activity (for example dinosaurs hidden around your outdoor area) or in conjunction with a 'Dinosaur' themed tuff spot or feely bag. Use as a Tally Chart or Check List. Differentiate expectations for individual children within your care. Some children may simply use it as a visual cue whilst others may begin to make marks resembling tally lines or even numbers. Alternatively ask your children ‘Which is your favourite dinosaur?’ and collect the results as a group. Which dinosaur has the most votes? Perhaps use in conjunction with our ‘Dinosaur Pictogram Chart Activity’.

FEED THE DINOSAURS DICE GAME - ODD/EVEN & CARNIVORE/HERBIVORE
Fun game to develop dinosaur knowledge including the terms ‘herbivore’ (plant eater) and ‘carnivore’ (meat eater). Along with developing/consolidating number recognition of dice numbers 1-6, this game also begins to sew the seeds of odd and even numbers. Children also develop listening and turn taking skills whilst having fun together! The game can easily be differentiated by outcome and adult input. Instructions on first page.

DINOSAUR NEST PLAYDOUGH COUNTING/NUMBER MATS
These mummy dinosaurs have lost their eggs! They can remember how many eggs they had. Can your children make the right amount of eggs with playdough and put them in the nest? Or perhaps they could draw the correct number of eggs? What will your dinosaur eggs look like? This activity not only develops number recognition and 1:1 correspondence counting, but also fine motor skills, creativity, descriptive language and dinosaur topic knowledge.

Why not play sorting games such as putting all of the carnivores in one pile and herbivores in another…or organising the dinosaurs in height order by looking at the size of the human in each picture?

You may even like to create different designs for different species of dinosaurs! This template lends itself to all sorts of art and craft materials and also loose part designs.

DINOSAUR FOOTPRINT NUMBER LINE FLOOR ACTIVITY
Dinosaur Footprint number line activity from 0 to 10 or 0 to 20. (Both versions included in file.) Print, cut (and laminate if desired) the footprints for a fun floor activity that reinforces number recognition and ordering to ten/twenty. (Take care as to what surface you place the footprints on as children may wish to step on them pretending to be dinosaurs!) Children start the number line with the ‘0’ at the bottom and think about the next number needed until they reach the ‘Roar!’ at the end at number ‘10’ and ‘20’. Extend children further by taking a number out of the completed line and asking children to work out which is missing. Of course these dinosaur footprints 0-20 once cut out could have many other applications. For example why not try hiding them in the garden/outdoor area or in a sand pit for the children to find and identify the numbers? Perhaps you could challenge your children to place the correct number of objects on each footprint?
