3 Marcus and Arun did not have a measuring tape to do their

investigation. They counted how many hand lengths long their

bones were. Is this a good method to measure bone length? Say

why or why not.

How am I doing?

Answer ‘Very well’, ‘Quite well’ or ‘I need help’ to these questions:

• How well can I measure the length of bones?

• How well can I record data in a table?

Look what I can do!

I can describe the main functions of the skeleton as protecting
organs, allowing movement, giving shape to the body and

supporting organs during activity.

I can understand that we grow because our skeleton grows.

I can measure the length of bones.

I can say why it is better to measure in standard units.
I can record data in a table.
