Dinosaurs:
We went back in time and delved into the subject of dinosaurs. We learned that dinosaurs are no longer alive and they are referred to as extinct. Then how do we know they roamed the Earth Millions of years ago? We know by finding bones and fossils. We now know that some dinosaurs were meat eaters (carnivores) by having large, sharp teeth, while plant eaters (herbivores) had flat teeth. Some dinosaurs that were mentioned were T Rex, Brontosaurus, and Pterodactyl.

My writing group is learning how to write in cursive. The purpose of teaching cursive in Montessori is to leverage its benefits for early learners, including easier letter formation, brain development, and improved reading and spelling.
