Students learn the correct names of various bones in the human body by using locomotor skills. They, in groups, move to the "pile of bones" to get the specified piece of the skeleton and the label required and return to the group.

Young scholars explore the relationship between their skeletal and muscular systems, resulting in ability to name and compare types of joints and ability to demonstrate how muscles move bones.

Students explore the human skeleton. In this biology lesson, students view a diagram of the human skeleton and identify the names of bones. Students define the role bones play in protecting the human body and construct a paper skeleton...

Students name the bones in the skeletal system according to the layman and medical terms of each of the predetermined bones.

Students integrate physical activity while studying the names of the bones in the body in a fun game form. They feel the bone in their body as the story talks about it. After doing this, they form a circle and sing the words to the...

Students engage in an activity in order to review the skeletal system. They play a game composed of two teams to be played in an open area. Students pick out bones from a bag and place them in the correct space for the skeleton.

Students listen to the song "Bone Song" as they enter the class. They identify the bones in the human body. Students are given the topic: Do body systems work together? Give an example. They work in groups of two and study the bones...

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.

Students study the components of the skeletal system naming the bone groups that make up the appendicular and axial skeletal systems. They name the different layers of bone and the types of joints. They create an animated skeleton.

Students play CD-ROM game My Amazing Human Body, and participate in relay game in Phys. Ed. where they put together skeleton on which body parts are labeled.

Fifth graders observe real bones and models to learn about the structure and function of the skeletal system. In this skeletal system lesson, 5th graders manipulate objects and models of bones. They handle real bones and determine the...

Students read and discuss a chapter from the book "A Dog's Life," focusing on the point of view of the dog in the story. They explore dog rescue organization websites, and play the online game "Bone Travels On," creating a story map and...

Learners reinforce their ability to identify bones of the body in a game setting using a Volleyball net, clothes pins, x-rays or pictures of human bones and joints.

Students explore the types of skeletons in various animals. In this skeletal systems lesson, students watch a video clip about skeletons, view a human skeleton, compare the skeletons of humans, chickens and fish, and learn about...

Seventh graders identify and label twenty-five bones of the skeletal system. In small groups they glue various types of dried pasta to a large human body outline. They attach the pasta to the outline and label the pasta bones.

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...

Students practice labeling the bones of a human skeleton. Students reword the song "Dry Bones" with the accurate names of the bones listed.

Students calculate the relative thickness of limb bones in five different species. They relate this to the strength and functions of the limbs by comparing and contrasting the values calculated from the bone measurements. They work in...

Seventh graders identify the common bones in the human body. In this biology lesson, 7th graders research two bones assigned to them. They explain why bones are important to us.

In this science worksheet, students identify bone groups from a given list. Students list each bone included in the axial skeleton. Students answer questions about specific bones, their location and importance.
