They already have become unexstinct, so you are up to date again:
(From Wikipedia)
Most researchers agree that modern-day birds are the only living members of the Dinosauria clade.

Difficult: they all have. Even cockroaches (which were around with the dinosaurs and a long way before) are "modern" cockroaches, which do not have the same DNA as the older ones that look much the same.
But "the cockroach" is a good example of an insect that doesn't look any different.

Regrettably, that's really, really easy: the list is enormous, and getting longer every day...
But...famous ones? The Dodo? Mammoth? St Stevens Island Wren?
(I like the last one, apparently the only known example of an entire species possibly wiped out by a single animal, named "Tibbles")
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Let's not go to the realm of myth and folklore. What will come next? Dragons, ghosts and goblins?

I don't know about the latter; I've met a few men (and women) whom I would call honourable.
I would agree that the honourable man is on the "endagered species" list.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Certainly most are extinct, but we also have examples like the Coelacanth that were thought to be extinct, but are not.

Just stop hiding the truth to her and break the news that dinosaurs are alive still. They are alive and control us like puppet masters.
All hail our Dinosaur overlords.

No, dinosaurs are our masters. Bob is the dinosaur master.

My eldest has formed the theory that the sharks killed all the dinosaurs.
He saw a video of an allosaurus (probably) hunting fish, only for a huge shark looking thing to pull it into the water. Don't want to correct his theory as it is the most boyish idea I have heard.

No one noticed your clever use of the double negative and they have all supplied the wrong answers.

Actually she is correct, there are several species of what we would consider dinosaurs that are still in existence. The answer the teacher is probably looking for is shark, but another example that is currently in danger of becoming extinct is the coelacanth which has been around for about 400 million years.
Interestingly enough, I had to do a report on a specific type of dinosaur when I was in the 4th grade and I chose the coelacanth. That was quite some time ago, so for your daughter to be learning about dinosaurs is probably not that common.
Software development is an endless struggle between the software developer who strives to produce even greater idiot-proof applications and the universe, which strives to produce even greater idiots.
