Dino-Diorama!

Krysten's first Science project was a Dinosaur report and Diorama. She also had to make a dinosaur out of clay. She chose to do a Tyrannosaurus Rex. I'm ashamed to say that I pitched in a little too much to help, but she did paint the grass and watch me build the dino out of clay. She wanted to help, but her mama is a bit of a perfectionist who kindof took over the project. As a teacher, I should know better. haha



Below is a picture of the clay T-Rex we built. We held his tail, arms, and legs on with toothpicks. We used the hairdryer to stiffen him up. Oh, I hope she makes it to school with it still in one piece.



The next two photos are miscellaneous shots of the box. I was so proud of this project. This is actually the first one I've ever done. Pretty good, huh?
