Take your advanced students on a simulated dinosaur dig and hone the analytical skills required to think like a paleontologist!

Based on the author’s real-life experiences, your students will join Dorian as he travels from New York City to Montana to participate on a paleontological dig. Employing problem-based learning and Socratic seminars, these engaging lessons give students the space to choose what parts of the lessons they’d like to explore further while encouraging them to investigate change over time from the age of the dinosaurs to the modern era.

With opportunities for student choice and targeted social emotional learning discussions embedded throughout, this award-winning unit is a must-have for Gifted Educators seeking to facilitate active student engagement while integrating an exciting, problem-based learning unit into their curriculum.
