Dino Dig

A fossil dig field trip: sandy layers, brushes and friendly dinosaurs.

Dino Dig treats the year as a fossil expedition. Every page carries a specimen number, each class gets a mock-Latin species name (Kindergartenus awesomus, Thirdgradus readasaurus), and the mascot appears on a New Species Discovered card. There is a Dino Size Chart that lines up the grades, a Museum Field Trip spread and a timeline that runs from a Jurassic September to an Ice Age winter. Signatures go on the Footprint Trail.

Dino Dig, answered

Is there a dinosaur yearbook template for elementary schools?

Yes. Dino Dig is a full Canva yearbook built around a dinosaur dig: sandy layers, bone-cream labels and friendly dinosaurs, with a specimen number on every page from the principal's letter to the signing pages.

What makes the Dino Dig class pages different?

Each grade gets a playful species name, such as Firstgradus curiosus or Fifthgradus maximus, and the moments pages have dig names of their own: Hatchlings, Dig Site, Field Notes and Exhibit.

Which colors and fonts does Dino Dig use?

Fredoka headings and Roboto Slab body text, with Dig sand, Clay orange, Fern green, Dirt brown, Bone, Lava red and Leaf. In Canva you can swap any of them for your school's colors.

Where do students sign?

On two pages at the back of the book: Footprint Trail: Sign Here! and Signed Specimens.
