Bones In Our Leg

The following entry was written by Leah Hasby:

We are studying the bones in the leg.  These bones are the femur (thigh bone), fibula (small bone in lower leg), tibea (large bone in lower leg),  and patella (knee cap).  We learned all of these bones in our leg in class and took a test on them.  It was fun because our teacher, Mrs. Azoff, came up with funny ways to remember them and we read many books to help us.  One of the funny ways to remember the fibula is that a 'fib' is a small lie and our fibula is the small bone in our leg. 
We are also learning about the circulatory system.  Did you know that there are lots and lots of veins rapped around our legs?  Its true!!
