Poly Bones and Tape Make PE Interesting

Help me give my students an exciting way to learn the skeletal system!

My Project

The tape will allow me to quickly set up different games and activities, without having it be permanent. The Poly Bone set is a great teaching tool for my students to learn and read all the names of the bones and where they are within their bodies.

The Poly Bone set will allow my students to learn all about their skeletal system, names, and locations of each bone in a fun and exciting new way.

The Poly Bones are a creative way to put their skeleton together.

My students will enjoy racing against the clock to be the first team done putting their bones together and labeling the bones. This also helps them learn how to read words in a fun way. I hope you will help me bring this game and activity to my students.
