BENDY BONES

OSTEOLOGY is the study of bones. I have learned what some of the bones in the body are called, such s the humurus (thigh bone), tibia (shine bone) and patella (knee bone). We watched The Happy Scientist show us how to tell whether a skeleton is a male or a female, e.g. the pelvis is a different shape and the back of the skull is too. He also did an experiment to make bones go from hard to floppy by putting them in vinegar. We tried it too.
