Miss Pedersen gave us each a copy of a tyrannosaurus rex
with a grid drawn on it. We talked about this grid and the
letters and numbers written down the side. We soon
discovered that this grid and these coordinates would
help us draw our dinosaur accurately.
The first job was to draw a grid, like the one on our
piece of paper, on the concrete with chalk. Our grid was
6 metres long and 6 metres wide. Each square in our
grid measured 3 metres by 3 metres.

We drew
a dinosaur…
For reading last week, the kakariki group and Miss Pedersen read a
story about a class of children who drew a giant dinosaur outside on the
concrete. We enjoyed the story so much that we decided to draw a dinosaur of
our own!
Here’s what we did:
We were then buddied up with someone else in our
group and Miss Pedersen gave us a part of the
dinosaurs body for us to focus on. This was important
because even though it was a group activity, it would
have been hard to have 9 people trying to draw the same
thing!
Then, we got to work!
Sometimes, we worked together…
And other times, we worked independently.
Miss Pedersen even got
stuck in!
We used a lot of chalk and got quite dirty!
Our dinosaur finally started to take shape!
It even tried to eat us!
After lots of colouring, our
dinosaur was finally finished
We were really happy and proud of our creation.
So was Miss Pedersen!
