Yesterday during CRT with Islay and Caroline, we became bone experts! Did you know that a human body has 206 bones, and 27 of them are just in your hand? We learned how bones keep us strong and how to look after them. To celebrate our learning, we traced our hands to make awesome ‘high five hands’ to share with each other. We also put our teamwork skills to the test by building a full human skeleton puzzle. It was so fun figuring out exactly where each bone belonged!

Kia ora, Aotahi students! Wow, I just read this blog post, and now I know there are 206 bones in the human body! I wonder if when you’re really little, do you have more bones? Twenty-seven bones in your hand are a lot of bones! Have any of you ever broken a bone? Ngā mihi Elizabeth K
