Primary 3 Science – The Human Body

This week Primary 3 have been learning about our human bodies. We have been finding out about our skeleton, what it’s purpose is and naming the different bones we have. Today we learnt about the longest bones in our bodies which are in our arms and legs. We measured the humerus, ulna and radius bones in our arms and compared with our friends. We learned that our longest bone is in our legs and is called the femur bone.

This afternoon, we went outside to create our own skeletons from chalk and shaving foam which we then labelled with the correct bone names. We were all very excited and enjoyed the mess we were making!
