Mission to Mars
Students consider the affects of space travel on the human body. In this human physiology lesson, students compare how the 5 different body systems work on Earth and in Space. Students then design a product that an astronaut could use as...
Curated OER
The Human Body
Seventh graders explore the basic body systems and design a commercial advertising one of them. They also create a body systems handbook.
Curated OER
Moving and Growing
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...
Curated OER
Biomechanics of Sports
Students examine the body's major organ systems and how they function and influence each other. They examine how the human body moves when involved in sports.
Curated OER
Your Amazing Body
Students examine the different body systems and how they are interdependent on each other. In this body systems instructional activity students draw the body and its parts.
Curated OER
Human Body Systems
Students explore the systems that comprise the human body. In this human physiology instructional activity, students create a model of the human body and research a disease from a particular system. Students will then choose to either...

Bones, Bones, and More Bones
Students describe the functions of bones in the human body. They describe the make up of a bone. They engage in a series of wonderful hands-on activitiies that reinforce learning of bones and the skeletal system.
Curated OER
Bone Transformations
Students create a picture from the shape of a bone. In this life science and art lesson, students discuss their bones and their purposes, then use a picture of a bone as a starting point for an artistic transformation. Lesson can be used...
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
Prosthetic Party
Students examine human anatomy by creating a prosthetic limb. In this medical engineering lesson, students view numerous images of prosthetics used in science today and define several medical terms associated with prosthetics. Students...
Curated OER
Studying Fossils
Students compare and contrast key skeletal differences between chimpanzees and humans: brain size, teeth, hand and thumb, trunk, pelvis, lower limb, foot and big toe. They then sort and group a set of mixed "fossil bones" of chimpanzee...
Curated OER
Sizing Up the Supersize Croc
Young scholars examine and compare traits of humans and crocodiles. In this crocodile lesson students use a ratio to estimate the height of a person and compare that to a crocodile.

What Makes Our Bones Strong?
So is that what you meant by rubber legs? The activity has pairs subject a chicken bone to vinegar and observe what happens over a period of days. Individuals then write up a lab report and document their observations and findings.
Purdue University
Model of Prosthetic Leg
Give the class a leg up in their understanding of engineering. A STEM activity has learners design a prosthetic leg that can kick a ball. They build a prototype of the prosthetic, keeping track of the design costs associated with their...
Curated OER
Human VS Animal Skeletons
Young scholars research and compare human and animal skeletons. They identify human skeletons basic functions and parts.
Curated OER
Dynamic Duo: Bones and Muscles
Students 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.
Curated OER
Walk, Run, Jump!
Students participate in a series of timed relay races using their skeletal muscles. They compare the movement of skeletal muscle and relate how engineers help astronauts exercise skeletal muscles in space. They list the three types of...
