Word Mats, Lesson Plans and How to Demonstrate Birds are Dinosaurs
A number of Papo prehistoric animal models are used in our dinosaur themed workshops with children. For example, when discussing evolution and natural selection with Year six pupils we use models of the various Velociraptors made by Papo to demonstrate how our ideas about dinosaurs have changed over time. The Papo feathered Velociraptor is ideal for demonstrating how closely related to birds some theropod dinosaurs were.

Papo “Les Dinosaures”
The Papo feathered Velociraptor dinosaur model makes a wonderful, tactile teaching aid when demonstrating how closely related the Aves (birds), are to some kinds of dinosaur. This element from our dinosaur workshop provides lots of extension ideas and activities. The class become avid bird watchers, or should that be “avian dinosaur watchers”.
When working with younger children we challenge them to develop their vocabulary using pictures of Papo prehistoric animal models. We have made a series of word mats, that once laminated can help children gain confidence with new words and can help them learn the differences between people and animals. The accompanying pronunciation guide and geological time line proves very useful to the teachers too.
