Anatomy and Physiology—Muscular
and Skeletal Systems Study Kits, continued
Joint Models—Demonstration Kit
By: The Flinn Staff
Loose joints? Creaky joints? Get those joints moving
again using our three-dimensional wooden joint models! Increase student understanding of how joints move and the sizes and shapes of the major synovial joints with these creative models. Wooden joint models can be physically examined and manipulated to see how differ- ent joints rotate and allow us to move. Find out how a pivot joint allows you to shake your head “No” and how a ball-and-socket joint lets you throw a fastball or a curveball! Ball-and-socket, hinge, gliding, and pivot joints are all represented. Kit contains complete instructions with Instructor’s Notes, and reproducible student handouts and worksheets. Concepts: Skeletal system, joints, joint structure.
Time Required: One class period
Materials Provided: Four different reusable wooden joint models.

Levers of the Body—Demonstration Kit
By: The Flinn Staff
A great deal can be learned about the human body
when it is analyzed as a simple machine—a lever. The human body is made up of levers (bones) with applied forces (muscles) to move body parts. The principles of the various lever types are first taught using a meter stick lever and then dramatically demonstrated using the arm- tube lever. The strongest person in your class will be humbled when a little leverage is applied to the arm tube. All materials are reusable. Concepts: Muscle contraction/relaxation, levers.
Time Required: 20 minutes
Materials Provided: Balance support, cardboard tube, knife lever clamps, meter stick, spring scale, weight hanger.
Note: Slotted weights are required and available separately.
Muscle Bingo—Super Value Game
By: The Flinn Staff
Time to flex your muscles—play bingo! Help
students learn the names, locations, and functions of the muscles in the human body with this engaging version of the ever-popular bingo game. Everyone will want to win, but they can’t win without learning. Game includes 30 preprinted bingo cards, lots of bingo chips, and “bingo choice sheets” to call out the selections. Bingo choice sheets list the names, descriptions, locations, functions of 74 muscles.
Super Value Game is complete for 30 students playing individually. All materials are reusable.
Forensic Bones—Super Value Kit
By: The Flinn Staff
A dead body has been found and the only things
remaining are the bones. What can be learned about the dead person? Forensic scientists often make inferences from the bones of a dead person. In this activity students consider the correlation between the length of the ulna (the long bone of the lower arm) and total body height. Scaled drawings of ulna bones are provided, and students develop their own correlation of height and ulna length. After graphing their measurements, students use the graphed results to make predic- tions about who-dun-it!
Super Value Kit is complete for 30 students working individually. All materials are reusable.
