One of the most popular topics among ENS pupils continues to be learning about dinosaurs. Every child has a favourite dinosaur, knows all about its life and diet, and can easily teach parents how to pronounce its name correctly in English.
Our visit to the Darwin Museum coincided with the “Dinosaurs” topic in the ESL, Year 1, and Year 2/3 classes. Right at the entrance, we were greeted by huge posters featuring dinosaurs—but the most exciting things were waiting for us inside! With great interest, the children explored the history of animal life on Earth and the habitats of prehistoric creatures, and compared the appearance of ancient humans with modern humans. Each child had a folder of tasks to complete by carefully examining the exhibits and listening to the guide.
Our young adventure lovers eagerly asked their teachers questions about what they had seen in the museum, shared impressions with one another on the bus ride back, and at home—before bedtime—acted out their favourite dinosaurs while telling their parents all about the trip.
