The main purpose of this workshop was to introduce the use of basic scientific skills to children aged between eight and twelve years old. Children were given fossil replicas of bones of two different dinosaurs, Carnota urussastrei and Amargasa uruscazaui, in order to introduce them into the work of a vertebrate paleontologist, teaching them to observe, classify, formulate and test hypotheses. The activity demonstrated that it was feasible to go beyond a strictly paleontological content, letting the students to become familiar with the processes needed to acquire such contents. Furthermore, several objectives regarding elementary education curricular design were accomplished. El siguiente trabajo describe el taller “Un Crimen Cretácico” dictado durante mayo y junio de 2016 en el Centro Cultural de la Ciencia, Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, Argentina. Éste se llevó a cabo como una iniciación en el manejo de las “competencias científicas básicas”, para niños y niñas de entre 8 a 12 años. Durante el mismo se propuso el análisis de los restos fósiles de un Carnotaurus sastrei y un Amargasaurus cazaui buscando introducir quienes participaron en los quehaceres de un paleontólogo de vertebrados, enseñándoles a observar y clasificar, realizar hipótesis y ponerlas a prueba. La actividad demostró que es factible ir más allá de un contenido estrictamente paleontológico, acercando al estudiantado a los procesos que son requeridos para llegar a dichos contenidos. Asimismo se cumplió con varios objetivos propios del Diseño Curricular para la educación primaria.
