Skeletons in the Cupboard 9-10-2015

On Friday we learned all about our joints and muscles. We made a model of a hinge joint and we stuck an elastic band onto the back of it and we learned how our muscles operate. We used Mrs Houlihan's play dough to make a ball and socket joint. Thank you to Mrs Houlihan for the loan of the play dough. We loved playing with it!

We made  a hinge joint first.

We answered the questions on the sheet.

We learned which were hinge joints and which were ball and socket joints.

This is fun working with play dough!

Working hard.

Yes! I did it!
