Reveal the picture through the clues

The theme may suggest long tails, necks, crests and footprints. Use that idea when observing the finished image, but decide every cell from its row and column clues. Do not fill a shape simply because you expect it.

After the activity

Distinguish what an illustration shows from what a footprint can tell you; a decorative picture is not a scientific reconstruction. Observe dinosaur silhouettes and compare necks, tails and other visible features.

Separate empty from unknown

Mark cells you know are empty with a cross and leave unresolved cells unmarked. Progress in a row supplies information for its columns. At the end, count the actual runs in every line and compare them with all its clues.
