George McVey Elementary School’s gymnasium in East Meadow traveled back millions of years as students stepped into a prehistoric adventure during the school’s Dinosaurs Rock assembly.
Presenter Bradley Chernoff brought ancient history to life with an interactive showcase featuring real fossils, bones and dinosaur eggs, instantly capturing students’ attention. For more than two decades, Dinosaurs Rock has delivered museum-quality exhibits to schools throughout the tri-state area, giving children a rare, hands-on connection to the world of dinosaurs.
Students examined dinosaur skulls, held fossilized eggs and even measured themselves against a towering dinosaur leg bone, gaining a new perspective on the scale of these ancient creatures. The excitement continued with a hands-on Dino Dig, where young paleontologists unearthed their own artifacts — and proudly took their discoveries home as souvenirs of a day millions of years in the making.
