We had lots of fun investigating the pros and cons of each skeleton and looked at examples of exoskeletons with the help of some shrimp and crabs! We can now explain which skeleton animals, including humans, have and we can understand why humans wouldn't survive with a hydrostatic skeleton! Look at our fantastic learning. ### Year 3 Science Fun!
