Dinosaur Discoveries and TCI Rock Iguanas!

What fun we all had in Senor Kindergarten learning about the Dinosaurs and Prehistoric times! Children had so many dinosaur adventures, pretending to roam through swamps and forests, going on Dinosaur hunt outside in the playground. Children imagine they are going hunting for a big scary T-Rex or Megalosaurus, moving through swishy swashy grass, squelchy mud or splashing across the river. We put our math skills straight to use trying to figure out which dinosaur is the longest? Which dinosaur has the biggest head and which one has the shortest tale? We used different kind of manipulatives to measure the playground to see if a Diplodocus would fit! Using rulers, metric tape and blocks we came to the conclusion that the playground wouldn't be big enough; Diplodocus's tail would be outside the fence. Go figure… Learning about the modern day Dinosaurs was definitely the highlight of our adventures. Boys and girls in SK were thrilled to take care of their own TCI rock iguanas. We used different coloured beads to tag our iguanas using (mirror image), learning quite a lot about their natural habitat and why our rock iguanas are endangered species today. (Cats and iguanas cannot live together – period).

 

Time for a Field Trip to find TCI Rock Iguanas!

By the time we were ready to go on our Field Trip children were fully prepared to take on the adventure and what an unforgettable experience it was! Many thanks to Duarte and Jovanna Toledo for taking us on their boat into Chalk Sound to see the islands with many residents TCI Rock Iguanas. We had a delicious lunch at Las Brisas Restaurant, enjoyed jumping into the pool and relaxing in the cabanas on the beach. What a fantastic way to end the Dinosaur Topic! Huge thank you to our fabulous parents and grandparents volunteers who made this trip possible and unforgettable one for our kindergarten children!!!

Guess what we found....TCI Rock Iguanas!
