Boy Were We Wrong About Dinosaurs! Kudlinski Novel Study Teaching Guide

This is a 20+ page novel study with answer key to Boy Were We Wrong About Dinosaurs! by Kathleen V. Kudlinski. This is a funny mystery written at a 900L Lexile. This nonfiction book is great for high readers in 2nd grade, on grade level readers in 3rd grade, and low 4th grade readers. Although it is a high Lexile, I do not recommend this for most older students simply because students may feel that the book is "babyish."
