Dinosaur Writing Project You are part of a dinosaur research team, and it is your job to research a dinosaur that has been found in the area. As you work with your team, you will be gathering information and create a brochure to share with visitors coming to see the discovered dinosaur bones. Your brochure must include: the dinosaur's name, where they live, what they look like, what they eat, how they behave, five interesting facts, and pictures. You will create a skit, using the information you have collected, to showcase your dinosaur to visitors of the dinosaur park.
