PROJECT WORK

DRAW A DINOSAUR AND DESCRIBE IT

When dinosaurs lived on the earth

Two hundred million years ago

Some were fast and some were slow

Two hundred million years ago

Some ate plants and some ate meatThey chewed it all with giant jawsThey walked along on giant feetWith giant paws and giant claws

They had long necks and scaly tailsThey were much bigger than three whalesSome had spikes and some had hornsThat made them look like unicorns

When dinosaurs lived on the earthTwo hundred million years agoThey laid their eggs upon the sandTwo hundred million years ago

The dinosaurs lived on the earthTwo hundred million years agoWe’ll never ever hear them roar -‘Cause they don’t live here anymore.

Paleontological Museum named after Yu.A.Orlov of the Paleontological Institute of RAS

• The Paleontological Museum of the Paleontological Institute is one of the largest specialized museums of paleontology. Its history goes back to the "Kunstkamer" founded by Peter the Great in 1716, to house his collection of mammalian bones and teeth from the Ice age together with some other material on natural history.

• Modern museum building was built for Paleontological Museum by the architect Yuri Platonov.

• One of the most interesting peculiarities of the Museum is the combination of the display of natural materials with artistic monumental decoration, showing the evolution of life on the Earth.

• The Paleontological Museum includes 6 halls and the expositions area is 4200 sq.m. The exhibits show the developmental history of organic world on the Earth.

• Most of collections are unique, containing fossil fauna and flora of passed geological epochs from many regions of Russia, Mongolia, China and some other countries.

• One of the most interesting exhibits was the so-called North Dvina Gallery, which showed a series of skeletons on the bank of the River Malaya Severnaya Dvina in Arkhangelsk Province at the beginning of the century.
