Dinosaur and Prehistoric Animal WebquestToday you will pretend that you're traveling back in time to visit the dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals. Think of the animals you would like to meet. What would they look like? What would they eat? What color would they be? Do they eat plants, animals or both? There would be many questions you would want to have answered.
Your job is to research the animal that your teacher has assigned to you and your partner. The two of you will work together to gather the information, just like you are paleontologists. So have fun, and remember, the best scientists spend a large amount of their time collecting important facts and are good at asking many questions while doing their research.
