Adopt-A-Dinosaur
Project Requirements
For this project, you will be required to research a dinosaur, create a 
picture page, and complete a fact sheet.   You will be allowed two class periods 
to research your dinosaur using the resources in the library. 
Part A:  Picture Page  (40% of your grade)
The picture page must be neat, colorful, and contain the required 
information.  You will need to create a slogan (statement or poem) that 
describes your dinosaur.  You will need to include a picture of your dinosaur, 
its name (as well as its meaning and pronunciation), and your slogan.  Picture 
pages may be done on a computer.
Part B:  Fact Sheet  (60% of your grade)
Fact sheets must be neat, written in blue/black ink, and contain all of 
the information requested.  You will also need to provide a list of sources on 
the back of your fact sheet.  You need to use at least three resources!
You  may use a variety of reference sources to complete your project.  
Possible ideas are encyclopedias (CD Rom or book form), science books, 
magazines, and Internet sites.   If you have access to the Internet at home, be 
sure to get your parent’s permission first! For a list of dinosaur sites, visit the 
Science Spot’s Kid Zone at http://sciencespot.net/kidzone.html.
