Dry Bones...

As part of our Animals and Humans Topic in science we have been looking at the structure of the human skeleton, and learning some of the scientific names for the different bones.

The children began the lesson by drawing their own idea of the human skeleton.  We discussed what bones actually do and why we need to have them.  The children worked in small groups to complete a giant skeleton puzzle, and afterwards went on a treasure hunt around the room to find the correct labels for some of the bones.  They had to look carefully at the different bones to decide which name matched each one.
