WHETU CRIME(Finger prints)

This week we have been learning about our finger prints and I have learned that there are 3 different main types of finger prints. The Loop, The Whorl and the Arch there are also different types of these finger prints like the accidental loop, The Double loop and the peek arch.

An arch is a finger print where the lines start from one side and trail to the other.

A loop is a finger print that starts on one side of the finger and loops back around to end on the same side that it started on.

A whorl is a finger print where the lines start in the middle and whorl around and around until it hits the edges of you finger.  
I had 2 Arches, 3 Loops and 5 whorls.

I have really enjoyed doing this finger printing task and I thought it was really, really fun to identify all of my finger prints.

Over all I think that this activity was a blast and I would DEFINITELY do it again.

This is my sheet and a close up on a few of my finger prints.
