Miss Haakenson's I-story

When I was younger, I was getting out of a car and was going to shut the car door, when all of a sudden I accidentally closed the door on my thumb. The bone in my thumb broke and I had to get a cast. After getting a cast, this made me want to learn more about bones.

Now it's your turn to do an I-story!

Think of a time related to bones. This could include experiences with a broken bone or anything else you may think connects to the topic.

Remember to write and draw out your story including "who" "what "where" and "when."

Once you are done, please take a picture and send it to Miss Haakenson, haakenso21@up.edu. I will post this on Google Classroom so everyone can see our stories!

Lyrics to "Bones of the Human Body" to the tune of "Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes."

Why do humans need bones?

For your final project, you will answer the question: "why do humans need bones?" by creating something to teach others about bones. I encourage you to look back at the videos we listened to, the song we learned, and the Padlet we created as a class. We have learned so much and I can't wait to see your final projects!

Some project ideas include:

• rap

• poem

• triorama

• video

• poster

• fortune teller

• whiteboard drawing video

• any other creative idea you may come up with!

Once you have completed your project, please share it with me. I will post it on Google Classroom and then I will share your projects with the other 1st grade classroom that way we can teach them what we have learned about bones.

You've got this, bone experts!
