Our Human Anatomy Display
On our final day of our unit we talked about blood. I mixed up a bowl of red food colouring and water and explained that actually blood under a microscope looks more like...
...this! The red skittles symbolised the red blood cells carrying nutrients and oxygen about the body; the white marshmallows symbolised white blood cells which are the body's soldiers and fight off infection; and the sesame seeds are the platelets which are the blood clotting parts of the blood.
The kiddies completed their worksheets and lapbooks...
...we found a few more library books about the body...
...and experimented with art and parts of the body. This one is Ballet Girl's.
