This unit was all about the skeletal system. I thought it was cool because it taught us that bones do a lot more than just hold up our body. It also stores minerals and produces red blood cells in the bone marrow. All bones are shaped the way they are for a reason. Bones are separated into four groups; long, short, flat, and irregular.
I am curious as to why some of the back disorders affect children, some affect adults, and some affect both. Perhaps it's because some things are caused by poor posture such as kyphosis and lordosis, so they take years to develop.
In this unit, it definitely helps to have a skeleton in the classroom. Looking at pictures sometimes can't give you the same hands on understanding.
My New Years goals are going good and bad. I have gained about 8 pounds since basketball has ended, however my grades aren't where I'd like them to be
