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...

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.

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.

Learners investigate the human skeletal system. In this biology lesson plan, students trace the outline of their body onto butcher paper and fill in the names of the bones. Learners use an overhead transparency of the human skeletal...

Sixth graders record a video. For this skeletal system lesson, 6th graders review what they already know about the skeletal system and then watch a presentation. Students work in groups to discuss what they learned and write a script for...

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 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.

To truly teach through the arts means one must tackle both art and core content in one lesson plan. This quick activity does just that. Learners make skeletons out of cotton swabs in order to study relief sculpture and the skeletal...

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

Seventh graders explore the functions of the skeletal system. They collaborate in small groups to determine the function of the skeletal system, the types of joints and movement, bone strength and growth, and bone injuries including...

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 trace the outline of one of their members and draw in the bones from the diagram. They make flashcards of the bones out of index cards. Once the drawings and flashcards are finished, they quiz each other in preparation for a game.

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...

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...

Learners act as paleontologists, examining pictures of dinosaur skeletons and applying their knowledge of the relationship between skeletal features and survival, to create 'Paleontology Reports' about their perceptions of the lives of...

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...

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

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.

Students identify the different parts of the skeletal system. In this biology lesson, students put together a skeleton using an interactive website. They evaluate the accuracy of their own answers.

Young scholars explore about the function of the skeleton and comprehend the names of the bones of the human skeleton. They compare bones of the human skeleton to a dinosaur skeleton and graph to compare these bones. Students sort bones...

Students study the skeleton. In this human body lesson, students draw and label bones in the body by tracing each other and creating a skeleton out of body parts and brass fastners.

Seventh graders investigate the strength of the muscular system. They explore voluntary and involuntary muscle movement and discuss the types of muscles: cardiac or heart, skeletal, and smooth. They visit stations to answer questions...
