Meet Dino the Dinosaur!

Dino the Dinosaur has come to visit our third graders in Burrton and learn about our small Kansas community. Dino is a travel buddy. Dino is currently on tour visiting schools around the United States and has stopped for a visit in Burrton! Dino’s home is Rowland Norment Elementary School in Lumberton, North Carolina.

Dino is providing our 3rd graders the opportunity to share a little about our community as well as a chance to learn about the other communities Dino has already visited. Each day a student will be responsible for taking Dino home, journaling about Dino's activities and taking pictures to share with our new friends in North Carolina. Each morning, the student is to return Dino and the digital camera to Mrs. Herl or to Mrs. Schmidt.

We are excited to have the opportunity to incorporate geography, writing skills, reading skills, math skills and technology skills into this activity.
