| It may be of help if a model Brontosaurus
is made up before giving this craft to the children so that you are familiar
with the layout.
Instructions for whole puppet given.
1. Cut out the head and body template and
punch out a hole in the top of the head and on the body where marked.
2. Fold the strip of paper concertina
style to make the wobbly neck.
3. Tape or staple each end of this folded
strip to the head and body.
4. Glue on the yoghurt pot to the nose/muzzle
area of the head.
5. Collage whole body with green and yellow
tissue paper, or other material of your choice.
6. Finish by tying a length of string
through the holes in the head to the body.
Ask the children to act out dinosaur walking
slowly (as they were so big !) through the forest looking for leaves to
eat. Discuss what they think dinosaurs really looked like and where they
liked to live eg. in the water air or land. |
