Glue the black rectangle onto the paper in a diagonal line.  Then glue the next black rectangle on in a diagonal line.  Then fill in the bones to make an x-ray!  Ask your child what sound x makes.  X makes the -ks sound.  (say k and s together quickly) Tell them that not to many words start with x so for this letter we often talk about things that end in x like box, fox, ax, six.  Welcome them to try to think of some.

# data[].attributes.body
This paper has an upper and lowercase x in the middle with a mushroom next to the X. Have the children either hole punch if you have or color each box that contains an x around the outside of the paper.  Then write and x and have the children color the pictures that end with the x sound.  Explain to them that there are only a couple words that start with x so we usually talk about words that end with x.

Use your play-doh to make 15 mini dinosaur eggs. You have to pull off a small piece of play-doh and roll it into a ball. When you finish, count the 15 "eggs". Be sure to touch each egg as you count.

Dinosaur Egg Hunt. Explain to your child that dinosaurs lay eggs. In your bag is a balloon with a dinosaur inside. Blow up the balloon without them seeing and hide it somewhere in your house. It is fun to put it in the middle of a few pillows so that it is a "nest". The children have to find it and then sit on the balloon to pop it to "hatch" their baby dinosaur. Once their baby dinosaur hatches have them name their dinosaur. Then they will draw a picture of them with their dinosaur. Have them try to "write" what they would do with their dinosaurs. (this may be scribbles, any letters or shapes, or if they are able you can help sound out a couple of letters to write a word or two)

Science: This is optional. I couldn't figure out how to get you the ingredients without being able to go to the store. But if you have vinegar and baking soda you are in luck. Droppers are in the bag. The kids love doing this!  Use the dropper in your bag to drop vinegar into baking soda.  Put some baking soda onto a plate or in a bowl.  Put the vinegar (you can dye this with food coloring to make it lava) into a different cup.  Let the children drop the vinegar into the baking soda to make bubbling lava.

There are miscellaneous worksheets in your bag, mostly from "teaching mama 2014".  These can be used at your discretion whenever you would like. Mostly, try to incorporate worksheets here and there but we do not want to practice what is known as "death by worksheet".

There are blank pieces of white paper and a paint brush. That's just for fun. :) Enjoy painting. If you are creating and want to draw a dino track or a dinosaur- feel free!
Anything with your child's name is just for them to practice with.

The clothespins are for your child to practice squeezing with their finger and thumb.  In the future these may be used for assignments.  Having them try to squeeze all the way down is a great way to build the muscles needed for handwriting.

The dropper can be used for dropping vinegar to lava but its also fun to just transfer water from one glass to another as it also works on the fine motor muscle strength.
