Unit Description

Start the unit by reading The Skeleton Inside You by Phillip Ballestrino

Activity with class talking about strong bones then they will write a short essay on what they discovered:

ACTIVITY 3 "DEBONING"

      1) In cooperative learning groups, students will observe chicken legs

         soaked in vinegar in jars.

      2) Students will observe bones that have not been placed in vinegar.

      3) Students will compare and contrast the similarities and differences

         of the sets of bones.

      4) Students will deduce that the bones that were placed in vinegar were

         weaker and more flexible.

      5) The teacher will explain that the vinegar contains an acid which dissolve

         the calcium phosphate in the bones.  Without calcium bones will

         lose their hardness and will become weaker.
