To make things worse, her arch-nemesis, Dr Moans, has sabotaged the exhibition by stealing one item from each display. Retrieve the stolen objects by exploring the world of teeth and eating to get them back in time for the exhibition. Learners will complete their mission by working with real animal jaws, reassembling teeth with our human models, discovering the functions of teeth and exploring how diet can have an impact on them - will they help Dr Bones to save the day? 

 

Learning Objectives: 

Understand the function of teeth
Understand the basic structure of the digestive system
 Label models of the human digestive system to identify key parts and understand their functions
Classify and compare teeth and mouth parts between animals and humans 
Understand the link between teeth and digestion

This workshop is adapted from a KS2 programme.

At Hampshire Cultural Trust, we welcome Home School families to our venues for self-led visits throughout the year. We also offer a series of dedicated home education days in which we invite you to travel in time to enjoy an immersive learning experience led by our expert team of facilitators. The sessions take the format of our curriculum-based workshops though are more relaxed so that a wider age range of learners can attend with siblings as required.

* All children must be accompanied by an adult who is responsible for them at all times including during facilitated workshops
* In the event of an emergency, you are responsible for the children in your group

* If you are looking to book younger/ older siblings into the sessions, please be aware that the content may not be pitched at their current learning level.
