Dinosaur food chains
I used these information cards on different dinosaurs to start a project with my year 7s.
I told my students that we were designing a fish tank, but for dinosaurs! They had to choose their favourite for their tank. They had to think about other dinosaurs they’d have to include to create a food chain for their pet, as well as the habitat. More able students also thoughts about other things they might want to include based no the adaptations of their chosen dinosaur.
Alternatively, students could use these to make a food chain, or food web, and the extension task could be to write about their adaptations or habitats.
