T-Rex

How do you ask a tyrannosaur out to lunch?

"Tea, Rex? :-)

Tyrannosaurus Rex was a fierce predator that walked on two powerful legs. 
This meat-eater had a huge head with large, pointed, replaceable teeth and well-developed jaw muscles. 

It had tiny arms, each with two fingers. Each bird-like foot had three large toes, all equipped with claws (plus a little dewclaw on a tiny, vestigial fourth toe). 

T. Rex had a slim, stiff, pointed tail that provided balance and allowed quick turns while running. T. Rex's neck was short and muscular. 
Its body was solidly built but its bones were hollow. 

Lets draw dinosaur T-Rex.

• Start by writing V.
• Write L on either side of V.
• Continue face by writing U at the free ends of L.
• Write U to start making arm.
  

• Finish making face by writing reverse C at free end of upper U.
• We then make neck by writing two C facing opposite sides.
• Make arm by writing V.
• For tummy we write J backwards.
• For the first leg we write flat C or a little bent I.
• Now write another C to start making back portion of leg.
• To make back of T-Rex we write a flat C facing backwards.
• Join neck with arm with I.
• Make second leg with two I ; bend them a little at their ends.
  

• Make tail by writing a long V as shown.
• To make feet we write W and then V at either leg.
• Join free end of the foot and leg with another V.
• Write S for eyebrows.
  

• Make second arm with two upside down U.
• Write W for fingers at end of either arm.
• Put a dot for eye, and a dot for nose.
• Write a series of V together at the upper and lower inner side of V to make teeth.
  

• Write a series of upside down Us at the back to make ridges.
• If you want to elongate tail, write another V.
• Decorate your dinosaur with stripes and dots.
  

T Rex is ready :-).

What do you call a terrible, horrible, unpleasant dinosaur?

A Thesaurus. :-)

Pteranodon

 Why did carnivorous dinosaurs eat raw meat?

 Because they didn't know how to barbecue! :-)

A person who studies dinosaurs is known as a paleontologist. 

Pteranodon have a long pointed head, a scooplike beak,  but no teeth, and a wingspan upwards of 6 meters (20 feet).

Time to draw another dinosaurs. It is a Pteranodon.

• Start by writing W.
• Write one U starting at lower tip of U and an upside down U at upper tip of W.
• Join free ends of two Us with V.

• Lets make feet now. Write upside down U.
• Now write two flat Cs(or bent I)facing each other.
• Write another small W starting at free end of C.

• Join the tip of U and the free tip of W of  feet with V.
• Write Bent I on both side of body to start making wings.

• Join the free end of I of wing to body with another I. Similarly make other wing.
• Make eyes by writing O and then putting a dot inside it.
• If you want to detail mouth then write another I joining the tips of lower beak.
• Color and our Pteranodon is ready to fly!!

 What happened when the Pteranodon took the train home?
 He had to bring it back! :-)
 

Nanosaurus

Why did the Nanosaurus cross the road?

 Because chickens hadn't evolved yet!  :-)

Dinosaur eggs are many shapes and sizes. Some are up to 16" long or more. But bigger eggs didn't always mean bigger dinosaurs. Some very large dinosaurs had small eggs. The first dinosaur egg fossils were found in France in 1869. Many dinosaur eggs found still have their original shells.

Lets draw another dinosaur- it is a nanosaur.

• Lets make face first by writing C.
• At free ends of C write two small Us.
• Write slanted 11 now. First one of 11 at free end of upper U and second 1 of 11 at center of lower U.

• Write two C, one each for front and hind leg.
• Write L at lower end of C.

• Write I to join free end of L. Two legs are now done.
• Join front and hind leg by writing a very flat U, more like bent I. Write similar I at free end of 1 we wrote for neck.

• Make tail by writing a big V.
• Make eye by writing O and putting a dot inside it.
• Write I for mouth. Our nanosaurus is ready !!!

 What’s the best way to talk to a Nanosaurus?
 Long distance! :-)

Baby Dino

Why do museums have old dinosaur bones?

Because they can't afford new ones! :-)

The word dinosaur comes from the Greek language and means ‘terrible lizard’. The word was coined by English paleontologist Richard Owen in 1842 and was meant to refer to Dinosaurs impressive size rather than their scary appearance.

To start with lets draw a baby dinosaur.

• To start making face write a C and then L as shown.
• Join free end of C and L together with  I.
• Then write another C( a flat one) in front and a small C in back.Write another C starting at free end of L.

• Join free lower end of C we made  for face and C with curved I.
• Now write 11 for fore leg and hind leg. Just make second one of 11 a little longer than first one.
• Join the two free ends of 11 with C.
• Write another set of small Cs as shown.

• Join free end of small C to body of dinosaur with I.
• Write J to start making tail.
• Join free end of J and the tip of hind leg with turned around C.
• Put two dots for eyes, and write horizontal I for mouth.
• Write a couple of Os in body of dinosaur and our dinosaur is now ready to roar.

 What did Triceratops sit on?

 Its Tricera-bottom! :-)
