Dinosaurs Project Done by Junior Kindergarten Students |
The one project that I really like was the dinosaurs project in which the teacher talked about the various types of dinosaurs - carnivores or herbivores and then had the students made some fossils from some easy to find everyday recycled material.
It was evident that the kindergarten students really enjoyed making these dinosaurs fossils and they proudly showed and explained to the judges what they did with their teacher.
Dinosaurs Fossils Made from used Coffee Grind |
Here is the recipe for making little fossils with kids:
1 1/2 cup flour
1 cup used coffee grind
1/2 cup cold coffee - any left over coffee will do
1/2 cup salt
Mix all the ingredients together. Press small plastic animal in dough.
Remove the plastic animal and let dough dry overnight.
Enjoy this great activity with the children!

p.s. If you live close by a Starbuck Coffee cafe, you can ask them for coffee grind. They have a store policy for giving out coffee grind to local residents who may use it as fertilizer.
