New School Montessori students studied and reviewed human anatomy at every level. Preprimary students used clay to represent major bones in the human skeleton while 1st-3rd graders traced the outline of their bodies on black paper and labeled their skeletal bones – some even working outdoors with chalk on blacktop. Our 4th-6th graders wore paper bones pinned to black leotards for their musical rendition of “Dem Bones” where they listed moved bones from the mandible to the metatarsals.
