“Dinosaur Dig! Fantastic!! This is just what I wanted!” “RUN!” “Look!” “No! You mustn’t pick the golden ones up! Now watch out for the dinosaur!” “Only 1!” “Well, the game is over! But I’ve got 3 lives left. How many have you got?” “What will happen if the dinosaur catches us?” “ROAR!” “Bye, bye, dino. Hmm. Maybe I’ll play a different game.” “You’re in Dinosaur Dig. We have to find old dinosaur bones.” “Here’s one!” “Where am I?”

Part 2: Can you put the dialogue in the correct order?! Part 3: Play the ‘Dinosaur Dig’ game with your partner! You each need a grid, 3 bones and 5 dinosaurs like the ones below. Do not look at your partner’s grid! 1. First, cut and stick the bones in 3 of the squares. 2. Next, cut and stick the dinosaurs in 5 different squares. 3. In turn, ask and answer, “Is there a bone in square (A1)?” 4. If you find a bone, you get 1 point. If you find a dinosaur, you lose 1 life! You only have 3 lives! Can you find all 3 bones before you lose your 3 lives?! Good luck!
