24 free printable dinosaur flashcards

The cards can of course be used for any children’s flashcard games but here are a couple of extra ideas you may like to try with older students.

1. Organising – you can get students to organise the cards into what they eat – Carnivores (meat-eaters), and Herbivores (plant-eaters). The answers for each dinosaur’s diet is given below.
2. Ranking – ask students to rank the dinosaurs by size (biggest to smallest). This could be either a research game or a competition to see who gets the most correct or arranges the cards correctly the quickest. The length of each dinosaur is given below.
3. Homework or research project – give each student a different card and get them to research and write about their given dinosaur.

Note that information on the diets and lengths of the dinosaurs was taken from Wikipedia and Britannica which both have differing statistics. Archeologists are always updating information and you may find a better/updated source of information elsewhere.
