X-Ray Hands

We actually did this last week when we learned about the letter X, but it goes with our theme this week (How Our Bodies Work) so I'm sharing it now. It's very simple. I had the kids trace their hand with a white crayon onto black paper.

Then they glued on Q-tips to make the bones.

So simple!

Some other things I have going on in the classroom for Body week are:

Doctor Kit in dramatic play

Operation board game (without batteries in it!)

Reading area with books about our body parts

 

On a different note, tomorrow starts the 2-week countdown to my due date. So if I suddenly disappear for awhile, you'll know why. I do have a few posts saved up so I will check in now and then on my maternity leave, but don't expect anything major!
