  • Join to access all included materials

After a lesson on the human skeleton, hand out a worksheet that requires learners to identify the pelvis, rib cage, skill, spine, and thigh bones. They draw a line from the name of the bone to its location on the skeleton. Tip: Instead of a worksheet, why not have kids label each other. They can make labels and put them on their partners skull, scapula, femur, and patella.
