Primary 4 have started their new IDL topic, The Human Body. We have watched some great science videos and we have been learning about what supports the whole body, the skeletal system and the names of all the bones in the body. We worked in our coop groups to create some human skeleton, with the bones showing so we could see where they all were and what they looked at. We have included some of our great pictures below, it was a fun afternoon!
Here are some of our Fun Facts:
Did you know that you have 33 little bones in your spine? Did you know that when you are a young child you have around 300 hundred bones, but adults have 206 bones? Did you know the femur (leg) bone is the strongest bone in your body? Did you know a 1/5 of your body weight is the weight of your skeleton?
