We have a read along below for you

So i have put together these reading cards with 12 of the most popular dinosaurs on theme. Each has some information and then 5 comprehension questions and a coloring box with the dinosaur in it (I will make the coloring images bigger for download in a short while in case you need)

There is plenty of information for Children on dinosaurs online, however there seems to much less for early or ESL readers. That’s why we have designed these. They should be more suitable for beginning readers of English.
