Explore the world of plants in our Cretaceous Garden! Discover what plants looked like in Alberta during the Age of Dinosaurs. Students work in teams to locate, analyze, describe, and draw a specific plant. Finally, they present the information they have gathered to their classmates. This program encourages students to use their observation, investigative, artistic, and public speaking skills.
