OPENING CEREMONY—“UNPLEASANT MODERN TIME DINOSAURS”


CM: As we meet some dinosaurs, ask yourself—do any of these resemble me?

Stegosaurus


1. Show a picture of STEGOSAURUS. This is STINGY
STEGO. He’s big and greedy. He thinks he should
always be first in line, first to eat, first to do everything. He
acts like he’s the only one that is important.

Allosaurus


2. Show a picture of ALLOSAURUS. This is POUTASAURUS.
He is never happy, but always discouraged and blue about
something. He blames himself when someone can’t play even
if they have something else to do.

Tattleachdon


3. Picture of TRACHODON. This is a TATTLEACHODON.
He doesn’t play well with others because he is always looking to
catch them doing something wrong. He imagines things and
tattles on them. How sad!

Tyrannosaurus


4. Picture of TYRANNOSAURUS. This is RUDE REX. He
wants to be the center of attention. He doesn’t say please
or thank you, and he butts in and pushes to get where he
is going. He burps and thinks it's funny.

Pokeyceratops


5. Picture of TRICERATOPS. This is POKEYCERATOPS. He is
always late because he finds things to do at the last minute.
He doesn’t care that others are waiting for him and wasting
their time.


CM: I’m glad all those creatures are extinct. We can choose how to behave. Let’s all do our
best
