“I Found a Baby Dinosaur,” Version 2
L.2.1, L.2.1d
I ______a baby dinosaur,
He is really very sweet.
His temperament is gentle
And his attitude is neat.
I brought him home to keep him,
My mom ______he won’t belong.
I told her in a day he could surely prove her wrong!
But he ______our swimming pool,
He ______our flowers and trees,
He blew my bike away every time he sneezed!
He got stuck in my doghouse,
He sent the cat away,
He smashed my toys to pieces every time he tried
to play.
He ______my Halloween candy,
He drew on all the walls,
He ______my favorite coat and now it’s not a
coat at all!
I found a baby dinosaur,
He is really NOT so sweet,
He ______our home a mess,
His visit was no treat!

I found a baby dinosaur,
He is really very sweet.
His temperament is gentle
And his attitude is neat.
I brought him home to keep him,
My mom said he won’t belong.
I told her in a day he could surely prove her wrong!
But he drank our swimming pool,
He ate our flowers and trees,
He blew my bike away every time he sneezed!
He got stuck in my doghouse,
He sent the cat away,
He smashed my toys to pieces every time he tried
to play.
He stole my Halloween candy,
He drew on all the walls,
He wore my favorite coat and now it’s not a
coat at all!
I found a baby dinosaur,
He is really NOT so sweet,
He left our home a mess,
His visit was no treat!
