The Human Skeleton!

N started learning about the human skeleton the other day and soon after C got to the same subject in here workbook.  I found some really good resources as well as created one too.  It's very simple but anything that helps then remember is worthwhile I think.

I found an unlabeled skeleton from here.  Then copied and pasted into word and enlarged it to make it easier to label.  N and C then set to work labelling as many bones as they could and put how many bones.  The discussions that came up as they done this was fantastic.  N and C liked it so I thought I'd share it on here just in case anyone else fancied a go at it.

I found that the BBC's interactive page, N loved this yesterday, helped us find out what some of the bones names are.  There is also these sites below which help in labeling the skeletons:

This is N and C's version:
