This week, the children have looked at muscles and movement, specifically the bicep and tricep muscles in the arm. We learned that both muscles work together to bend and stretch the arm. When the bicep contracts, the tricep relaxes which lifts the arm up. We then used this knowledge to understand how the arm can move back straight- when the bicep relaxes, the tricep contracts!
