Presentation transcript:

The skeletal system is a complex organization of many bones. It is important to understand the system as a whole before identifying the significance of a single bone. What do you know about the skeletal system? Review the basics of the skeletal system by viewing the resources listed below.

(teacher will show or students view from home) Them Not-So-Dry Bones, Schoolhouse Rock! Skeleton- World Book Advanced Test your basic knowledge of the skeletal system by taking the quiz.quiz Next Image Source: World Book Advanced by subscriptionWorld Book Advanced

Now that you have a basic understanding of the skeletal system, it is time to look closely at one particular bone. The femur is the largest bone in the body. While viewing the resources below, consider the following questions: What layers exist in the femur? Where is the femur located in the skeletal system? What function does the femur allow humans to achieve? What is the role of the femur? Which bones connect to the femur? Take notes using the Cornell Notes sheet.Cornell Notes sheet Digital resources: Basic Advanced  About Kids Health: Bone Anatomy About Kids Health: Bone Anatomy  Bone Structure Bone Structure  About Kids Health: Skeleton Anatomy About Kids Health: Skeleton Anatomy  Arm and Leg Bones: Safari Montage (teacher will show or students view from home) Arm and Leg Bones: Safari Montage  The Living Bone: Safari Montage (teacher will show or students view from home) The Living Bone: Safari Montage  BrainPop: Skeleton BrainPop: Skeleton What choices or additional information can you add here as an introduction to the task to be outlined on the next page?

Using the notes from the previous resources, complete the following questions about the femur in complete sentences Next MS Word Version

Now it is time to put your new knowledge to work. You have researched the skeletal system as a whole and the femur in detail. Synthesize this information to answer the essential question: Consider the question in terms of an athlete running. Choose one of the following options to explain how the process of running would change if the femur was: Shorter Longer Composed of less layers/different materials Create a diagram and detailed explanation using Dabbleboard. Be sure to include: Dabbleboard Change in appearance Change in function Change in skeletal system Diagram and explanation may be graded using the rubric.rubric Next Click on the image to view a video of a runner.
