Classroom & Home Ideas

- Sail pattern study. Choose a detailed page and fill each section of the Dimetrodon's sail with stripes, scales, dots, or repeating shapes.
- Stream habitat poster. Color the Dimetrodon standing in a shallow stream, then label the water, rocks, mountains, and prehistoric plants.
- Dimetrodon fact card. Cut out a colored Dimetrodon and mount it on cardstock with its name, body features, and the fact that it lived before the dinosaurs.
- Warm and cool sails. Print two plain-background pages and color one sail with reds, oranges, and yellows and the other with blues, greens, and purples.
- Classroom hill display. Have each student color a Dimetrodon from the easy or cute pages, then arrange the cutouts across a paper-covered grassy hill.
Questions
Was Dimetrodon a dinosaur?
No. The animal pictured on these pages was an early synapsid that lived before the first dinosaurs.
What colors should I use for Dimetrodon?
Fossils do not show its exact colors, so the pages can use brown, gray, green, or patterned bodies with a contrasting back sail.
Which Dimetrodon pages are best for preschoolers?
The three easy pages have thick outlines, large coloring spaces, and simple rocky, plain, or grassy backgrounds.
