We have been looking at various festive themes this week leading up to Halloween, and one of the subjects that came up was skeletons. We read the book "Dem Bones" and talked about the different bones in our bodies--what are they connected to? What do they help us with? Many of the students talked about how skeletons aren't as scary when we think about how they are bones inside of our own bodies. We then got to work with our grade 6 buddy class to create our own skeletons using Q-tips, glue, paper and paper. Each was slightly different in terms of how the body was put together, but students discussed the common features each skeleton has, and how when bones move, the rest of the body moves with it.
