Introduction to Dino Dig

Dino Dig lets players hunt dinosaur remains by entering grid coordinates. They type X and Y values and hit the check button. A dig machine then moves to that spot and uncovers bones buried there. Each coordinate pair reveals different pieces of a skeleton.

The game casts students in paleontologist roles. A grid labeled with letters on one side and numbers on the other helps pinpoint fossil clues. When a player picks a coordinate, clicking that square shows either a bone fragment or an empty space. Trial and error guides them to read maps and clues more closely.

Teachers can use Dino Dig as a standalone task or work it into a lesson on spatial reasoning. Players build skill matching letters with numbers and gain confidence reading grid layouts. Hands-on digging keeps students engaged while they sharpen their coordinate skills.
