BONES OF THE BODY

Bones of the Face

Do Now: Name the four major bones of the cranium, their sutures, the bones they articulate with and include the anatomical direction

Today in class we discussed the major bones of the face, their features and their functions. Included in this discussion was the Maxillae, Zygomatic bone, Nasal bones, Lacrimal bones, Vomer bone, and the Mandible.

Worked on skeletal labs - you should have quizzed out of the first lab today, if not you are behind and need to get going.

Bones of the Cranium

Today in class we:
Discussed the bones that make up the cranium, their features and functions.
Began rotations on the skeletal system labs


Homework:
Work on labeling the diagrams of your lab and prepare to quiz out of your lab section on Tuesday

Introduction of Skeletal System

Today in class we:
Began discussion of the skeletal system, including:
Functions of the skeletal system
Anatomy of compact bone
Anatomy of a long bone
Classification of skeletal system: axial and appendicular skeleton

Homework:
Complete the skeletal system diagram worksheet
