#### Dinosaur Bones Found at School

##### On Monday Blue Tang became paleontologists and found dinosaur bones in the sand area.

#####

##### We wrote newspaper reports about the bones to let everyone knew the news. We discussed where they might have come from and what the different bones are. We read the story 'How to Look After Your Dinosaur' and discussed ways in which we could take care of a dinosaur. Next week we are going to find out more about dinosaurs and write our own non-fiction book.

##### This was a great start to our topic and Reception can't wait to learn more about different animals throughout the term.
