The Great Dinosaur Search, (6 copies) by Rosie Heywood

Science, picture book, puzzles, ages 4-13. The Great Dinosaur Search is full of the most fascinating facts about the amazing creatures that inhabited the Earth many millions of years ago. But this is so much more than just a book about dinosaurs. With around a hundred prehistoric animals and plants to spot on every double-page, get ready for hours of serious fun. Find ferocious Tyrannosaurus in a tangles Jurassic forest, and spot packs of deadly velociraptors hunting their prey across sandy plains. You won't want to stop searching until you've found them all. (back cover)

 

Because this book contains a plethora of illustrations of various types of dinosaurs and their habitats, it can help students develop their science vocabulary. The Shared Reading approach works well with this series, as the teacher can sit with a group of 5 students while studying certain features of the book. Alternatively, students can work in pairs to discuss the content in order to develop academic language and literacy. Introduce other related books from our library to your dinosaur unit. See The Dinosaurs of Waterhouse Hawkins by Barbara Kerley and Time Flies by Eric Rohmann
