Making a Body System Booklet
Students create a body booklet by having their partner trace the outline of their body onto butcher-block paper.
Cool Craniums
Rise to the head of the class. Using mammal skulls, groups of pupils identify aspects of them. The teams make predictions on the classification of mammal the skull belongs to based upon the observations.

Dynamic Duo: Bones and Muscles
Students explore the relationship between their skeletal and muscular systems, resulting in ability to name and compare types of joints and ability to demonstrate how muscles move bones.
Curated OER
Walk, Run, Jump!
Students participate in a series of timed relay races using their skeletal muscles. They compare the movement of skeletal muscle and relate how engineers help astronauts exercise skeletal muscles in space. They list the three types of...

Elements of Biology: Organization In Living Systems
High schoolers explore the recent research on dinosaurs. For this dinosaur lesson students write a report on the new findings and how it has changed ideas on dinosaurs.
Curated OER
Owl Pellets
Students utilize owl pellets to explain part of the natural food chain, and the skeletal system. They construct a rodent skeleton from the skeletal parts foundin the pellet.
Curated OER
The Skeleton Within
Fourth graders explore the bones, joints, and other attributes of the skeletal system.
Curated OER
The Envelope Please
Students examine and research the importance and functions of the skeletal system in vertebrates. They construct a 10-foot geodesic dome to illustrate the importance of architectural frameworks and create a clay animation movie.
Curated OER
Owl Pellets
Students discover the contents of an owl pellet. In this science lesson plan, students explore the eating habits of owls and compare the contents of an owl pellet to the human skeletal system.
Curated OER
Dem Bones
Learners engage in an activity in order to review the skeletal system. They play a game composed of two teams to be played in an open area. Students pick out bones from a bag and place them in the correct space for the skeleton.
