Curated OER
Fun Bones
Use the hokey pokey music to teach the names of some of the major bones in the human body. Circle up, put on the music, and put your right radius in. Use this in an anatomy class to spice things up a bit!
Curated OER
Human Anatomy- How Do We Move?
Young scholars examine the muscular system. In this muscular system lesson, students first draw a realistic representation of their leg or arm bones. Young scholars do several activities to attach these bones to "joints" with string...

The Leg Bone Is Connected to The...
Young scholars discover the names of 13 major bones in the human skeletal system. They construct their skeleton using paper plates and other simple products. Links to templates are provided within the resource.
Curated OER
Human Traces
Young scholars create and construct human skeletons by rubbing casts of bone impressions on paper, and then label most important components of human skeleton.
Curated OER
The Skeletal System
Students research the skeletal system. In this anatomy lesson, students measure their bodies to find the approximate length of their bones. They draw and cut out each of the bones and then attach them using brads or glue.
Curated OER
Skeletal System
Third graders describe and identify the parts of the skeleton and how they support the body. They observe two chicken bones that have been soaked in vinegar for 5 - 7 days. They observe the bone's appearance after it has been removed...
Curated OER
Bones and Muscles
Third graders are introduced to bones as the body's means of support and protection. They research bone facts and conduct an experiment with chicken bones. They identify and observe involuntary muscles at work.
Curated OER
Body Length Experiment
Young scholars measure the lengths of their bodies and various body parts to determine the relationship (or lack of one) between body part length and the length of the entire body. A spreadsheet program is suggested for data collection.
