3rd Grade Science Lab

These third graders are actually doing comparative anatomy.  Since they were studying dinosaurs in class they learned the names of the major dinosaur bones in lab.  Then, the students were surprised to learn that they had the exact same bones.  Not only did they label a printed human skeleton, they labeled their own skeletons on their own bodies! Each number on their body matches the correct name of the corresponding bone.
