Come along on a prehistoric adventure! When you share this Interactive Map with your students, they'll get kid-friendly directions for how to explore. They can click around the six different dig sites (each featuring one incredible dinosaur), where they'll watch a pair of videos and take a quiz. Make sure you've also printed copies of the Paleontologist Field Journal for them to record their findings. It's all part of our Walking With Dinosaurs Virtual Field Trip!
To start, click on the link below. You'll be invited to make a copy of the Google Slides. You can save it to your Google Classroom and then share it with students so they can explore on their own. They'll want to be in Slideshow mode for this!

- Fact File: Using information from the Meet the Dinosaur video and your own research, fill in all the boxes.
- Coloring page: Color the detailed scientific drawing of the dinosaur.
