This week in Science I have added a video for you to watch all about skeletons. The first part of the video will be a reminder of what you looked at last week and is about the different types of skeletons. I would like you to watch the video up to 19mins 45seconds (don't worry if you want to watch it until the end but we will only be looking at the bones in the skeleton this week).
Once you have watched the video, I would like you to complete the 'Label the skeleton' worksheet. If you need any extra help with this take a look at the other links I have added below. Once you're finished labelling your skeleton, why not have a go at making a moving skeleton.
Have fun learning about our bones class 3!

Hi Bull,
I am writing to you because I am still worried about returning to the tribe. When you came to the cave I thought you were there to kill me .
