Locomotion and Support is the second Chapter of Bio Form 5..And we have just started it early of the week...,There are many teaching aids available for this chapter. It really helps the students to visualise the real bones better.
And I'm using the module, a compilation of notes..
...using the vertebra models, it helps the girls to identify the C1~ cervical 1 which is an atlas and cervical 2 which is an axis...Looking at the way the two vertebrae articulated...
The specieal feature that an axis has ~ an odontoid process..
Observing the intervertebral disc which is made up of cartilage...act as a cushion~ to absorb shock..
And we have three sets of big skeleton in our lab, for the girls to identify the bones...
..plus a set of a small skeleton...which is quite handy for me to carry around when I wanna explain the system !
...and we have the 'Vertebral column' model ..to identify the cervical, the thoracic, the lumbars, sacrum, coccyx..
Also we have six boxes of vertebral column models...enough for all girls to identify the types of vertebrae..
And of course the big chart, hung at the corner of the lab...
plus the 'X-Rays' of the rib bones....
All of the above teaching aids should be more than enough for the girls to master this chapter...
