Letters to Dr. Dinosaur
By Kathleen W. Redman
  

1     "Well," Mrs. Adams said. "We have finished our dinosaur unit. What is a good way to show what we learned?"
 
2     "I can make a poster," Jamie said.
 
3     "I can write a report," Colleen said.
 
4     "I can make a model of a dinosaur," Bill said.
 
5     "We can take a test," Gloria said.
 
6     "Oh, yuck!" the rest of the children said. "We do not want to take a test!"
 
7     "I know! I know!" Lena shouted. She was very excited. "We can write letters to Dr. Dinosaur!"
 
8     Mrs. Adams looked puzzled.
 
9     "What do you mean?" she asked.
 
10     "Everyone can write a letter to Dr. Dinosaur. We can tell him what we learned. We can draw pictures if we like to draw, too."
 
11     "Yes," D.J. said. "I like that idea. I can write a dinosaur poem for him."
 
12     "I can draw the best T. rex of anyone," Sal said.
 
13     "I can write some facts about velociraptors," Dave added.
