Replace that letter and number with YOUR program’s equivalent that you typed into

the Conversion Chart.3. Print!

The Weekly AND Daily Planning forms are both 100% editable so you can move the activities to the days you want to do them or even replace them with your own activities! (If you do that-be sure to change them on the daily planning forms as well AND replace the standards in that box with the correct standards for the activity you have replaced mine with!)NOTE: The blue areas will NOT print blue, don’t worry! Those areas are the “editable areas”. They will print with a white background when you print!

DI-NO-SAUR Song1 dinosaur went out to playOn a bright and sunny dayHe had such enormous fun

That he called another dinosaur to come:“DI-NO-SAUR” (yell this!)

Thump-Thump-Thump (pat knees or stomp feet while saying each ‘thump’)

2 dinosaurs went out to playOn a bright and sunny day

They had such enormous funThat they called another dinosaur to come:

“DI-NO-SAUR”Thump-Thump-Thump



“DI-NO-SAUR”Thump-Thump-Thump



“DI-NO-SAUR”

This time, they did NOT hear “Thump-Thump-Thump”!Instead, they heard their Moms’ calling out “DINNER!”.

And all the dinosaurs went running home! (have children pat their laps or un in place to make the sound of feet running home for dinner).
