skeletal system flash cards

Skeletal Syste Flash Cards
Assignment due Monday, September 14th.

We will make flash cards as study aids throughout the course.
Make flash cards from note card stock which is thicker and sturdier than normal paper.
It is prefered that they have lines on one side but this is not necessary.
Either (3x5) or (4X6) will work.
If you do not write too big you can cut the flash card in half to make smaller cards.

The first set of flash cards we will make will be of the skeletal system.
Directions:
Write each of the terms on figure 6-9, page 147, on one side of an index card.
On the other side of the card write the common name that you would know it by.
On this side, also write the nember of those bones that the body has.
For example: tarsal bones on one side and ankle bones (14 total, 7 on each side) on the other.
There should be 36 cards in assignment but we will eventually add to this number as we learn some of the names of the vertebrae, face, cranium, hands, and feet.

LATER we will add to these cards so leave some space to write additional details in the future.
(Such as type of joints or muscles that are attached)

Using the cards:
Keep the cards together in a zip lock bag and label the bag with the subject.
Flip through the cards to learn the information on the cards.
You can shuffle the cards so that you are not learning them in a particular order.
When you come to a card you do not know, put it in a seperate pile. These are terms you need to study more.
You can also try matching each term that part of your skeleton or arranging them on a table to form a skeleton.
