Preview of a typical lesson

Principles in Anatomy and Physiology in Sport.

2. To be able to DESCRIBE the structure and function of the skeletal system.

LEARNING AIMS

1. With the person next to you think of a range of sporting movements, for example Basketball shooting, kicking a ball in football or rugby.

2. IDENTIFY the bones and muscles involved in these movements.

3. DISCUSS your findings to examine a wide range of sporting movements as a whole class.

STARTER

• The Skeletal System is made up of bones, cartilage and joints.

• Your skeletal system provides a framework that supports your muscles and skin and protects your internal organs.

• It is made up of 206 Bones which are divided into two groups; 80=Axial Skeleton 126= Appendicular skeleton.

The structure of the Skeletal System

Using the pictures and information what forms the Axial Skeleton and the Appendicular Skeleton.

• Name the bones that are part of each skeleton group.

• Can you specifically identify where they are in the body?

• What are the major types of bones, give an example of each.

• Are they axial or appendicular?

Research Task
