week 14

This week we are finishing chapter 6 on the skeletal system and starting chapter 7 on the muscular system.
Corrections to the exam are due on Tuesday, November 17th.
Besides the worksheets posted here which a the backbone to outlines of the chapter, we have several coloring sheets which will be handed out in class. I do not have electronic versions of these.
Also, we are learning the major skeletal muscles on p. 205 and 206.

yoga posture assignment

Choose a yoga posture to teach to the rest of the class (a different one than you taught before).
Write instructions on how to do the yoga posture using at least 10 skeletal terms, 5 motion terms, from page 168-170, and 5 synovial joint function terms from page 171. We will work on this in class on Wednesday, finish them as homework and will teach them at a later date.

more skeletal flash cards, due Thursday the 5th.

Assignment:
make flash cards on the cranial bones, mandible, and maxillary bones, as well as the different movements of the skeleton on page 168, 169 adn 170.
