When I taught public school, the Magic Tree House books were quite popular with my second graders. I decided to use this series with my daughter because the books focus on historical topics.
This cross-curricular 5-day unit will help to give your child better understanding of the book “Dinosaurs Before Dark” while providing information about dinosaurs and fossils. This packet will only focus on chapter TWO of the book. This packet includes 16 pages (10 pages of plans with 6 additional printables).
