Tina’s notes:
I wanted my student to practice using specific letters and contractions so I made this drawing. The student often gets confused by similar looking signs like i and e, b and c, ar and gh. I didn’t use the b, but I used the other symbols multiple times.
Drawing notes:
The original design was 32 cells wide. I modified the tail starting in row 10 to make it fit our page.
Fun facts:
Our dinosaur could be a T-Rex standing on his hind legs to reach something high to the left. He has short upper arms and a long tail to keep his balance. Weighing in at around 600 pounds, our dinosaur is approximately 13 feet tall with a 20 foot tail. With a mouth full of 60 eight-inch-long teeth, every other animal was a meal.
