Goal Setting Review
​Setting SMART Goals is an important skill. When working towards improvement, small, short term goals can help.
A SMART goal is: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic & Relevant, and lastly Time Bound.

​Use the sheet to the right to set three of your own goals. ​Start at Not Yet and work your way to Wow!


​Remember to always be a YETI! It is important to have a growth mindset when it comes to P.E. When you struggle to do something instead of saying "I can't," try "I can't YET."

REMEMBER TO TURN IN YOUR PORTFOLIOS FOR CREDIT!
This week we are turning in our completed portfolios. During the break, I will be grading and assessing the portfolios for completion. These portfolios can help your grade tremendously. When you get your portfolios back they will be filled with more new sheets as well, so remember to turn them in so that you can keep learning all the awesome things about our anatomy.

Week #16: December 7 - December 11
Picture
Bones of the Hands and Feet.
Your hands and feet are where most of the bones of your body exist. There are 26 bones in each foot and 27 bones in each hand. Structurally these bones have a lot in common.
The wrist bones are scientifically known as Carpals. These small round bones each have an individual name. They are small in order to allow maximum movement.

The Heel bones are known as Tarsals. Unlike the Carpals the Tarsals are long and flat. This prevents range of motion but increases balance and support.

Metacarpals are the bones of the hands. Similarly the bones of the foot are called Metatarsals. These bones are flexible and allow you to curl your hands and feet.

Both your Fingers and your toes are scientifically known by the same name: Phalanges.

Make Up Week
This week our awesome anatomy will be a make up week. Take this opportunity to catch up on any missing assignments, or to double check any work. Triple check and read carefully to make sure you didn't miss any instructions. Email Mr. Will if you have any questions.

Week #12: November 9 - November 13
Picture
Bones of the Leg
The legs are the lower limbs of the body. They’re designed to support our upright body. Each arm consists of five main parts: upper leg, shin, knee, ankle
and foot
The upper leg bone is called the femur. The femur is the largest  and longest single bone in your body. It makes up 1/4 of your total height.

The patella is commonly called the knee cap and helps protect the joint between the upper leg and the shin bones. The two shin bones are called the tibia and fibula.

The tarsals are your ankle and heel bones The metatarsals are the bones of the feet, and yYour toes just like your fingers are phalanges.

​The structure of your arm is very similar to the structure of your leg. Can you name 3 similarities and 3 differences?

Week #11: November 2 - November 6
Picture
Bones of the Arm
The arms are the upper limbs of the body. They’re some of the most complex and frequently used body parts. Each arm consists of four main parts: upper arm, forearm, wrist
and hand
The Upper arm bone is called the humerus and connects with the shoulder. It stretches halfway down your arm.

​There are two lower arm bones. The thumb side bone is called the radius, and the pinky side lower arm bone is called the ulna.

Next come the wrist bones scientifically called carpals. 

The metacarpals are your interior hand bones.

​Lastly comes our phalanges, also known as the finger bones.
​ 


Week #10: October 26 - October 30
Picture
Bones of the Spine
The Spine, also called your backbone, is actually a series of bones called 
vertebrae. Three types of vertebrae, alone with your Sacrum and Coccyx make up your spine.
Cervical Vertebra are the first 7 vertebrae as you go down from your head. These are small vertebrae allowing for the most movement.

Thoracic Vertebrae are the vertebrae that are attached to the rib cage and make up the next 12 vertebrae.

Lumbar Vertebrae make up the lower part of your back bone. these vertebrae are the largest vertebrae in the body because they have to support more weight that the others.

You Sacrum and is attached to the pelvis and is part of your pelvic girdle, and The Coccyx is  your tailbone.


Week #9: October 19 - October 23
Picture
Bones of the Torso
The Torso is the section of the body that stretches from the shoulders to the hips. The bones of the torso include the spine, scapula, clavicle, strernum, Ribs and pelvis.
The spine is your backbone and stretches the length of your torso.
Your Scapula is a flat bone that is commonly called your shoulder blade.
Your Clavicle is the cylindrical bone commonly known as your collar bone.
Your Ribs and Sternum are fused together and create the Rib Cage.
​Your Pelvis is your hip bone. You can remember this because "Elvis Shook his Pelvis"

Week #8: October 13 - October 16
Picture
Bones
The Sekeletal System is made up primarily of bones. 206 bones to be exact. Bones are dense structures that can support weight, give your body shape and help you move.
Bones have a hard outer covering that is made up of tiny tubes. Nerves and blood vessels run through the tiny tubes of the outer layers. 

Underneath the outer layer is a hard, strong layer of bone cells that is surrounded by deposits of minerals such as calcium and phosphorus.

The inner layer of bone is spongy with many air spaces. In the very center of the spongy bone layer is a tissue called Bone Marrow. Bone Marrow is where blood cells are made.


Week #7: October 5 - October 9
Picture
Skeletal System Intro
The Sekeletal System serves two purposes in your body. First, it  creates the physical shape of the body. Without your skeletal system you would be a gooey glob of slop. 
Second the parts of the skeletal system is used to protect vital organs such as your spinal cord, lungs, heart, kidneys and brain.

The primary components of the skeletal system are Bones, Ligaments, Tendons and Cartilidge.

Bones are the hard structures that make up your 
skeleton. Ligaments connect bones to other bones. Tendons connect muscles to bones, and Cartilidge is a cushioning material that exists between bones and can also be found in your ears and nose.

Make Up Week
This week our awesome anatomy will be a make up week. Take this opportunity to catch up on any missing assignments, or to double check any work. Triple check and read carefully to make sure you didn't miss any instructions. Email Mr. Will if you have any questions.

Week #5: September 21 - September 25
Picture
Blood & Blood Vessels
Blood and Blood Vessels are the nutrient superhighway for your body. This network of arteries, veins and capillaries reaches even the smallest parts of your body.
Arteries carry the blood away from your heart, veins carry the blood back towards your heart. Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels in the body and connect arteries to veins.

Your Blood consists of Blood Cells and Blood Plasma. Blood Plasma is the liquid substance that blood is made of.  Red blood cells transport oxygen and carbon dioxide to and from the body. White blood cells are your bodies disease fighting cells. They are part of your immune system. Platelets help your blood clot and repair damaged tissue.



Week #4: September 14 - September 18
Picture
Breathing
Breathing is the method that the body brings in oxygen (O2) and releases carbon dioxide (CO2). Breathing is Scientifically known as respiration.
You breathe in air through your nose and mouth.

Air travels down the trachea or windpipe. Do not confuse your windpipe and your 
esophagus they are two separate tubes.

The trachea will then divide into two separate smaller tubes known as bronchi tubes. at the end of these are small air sacks called alveoli.

The lungs are less like balloons and more like spongy tissue created by the alveoli.


Week #3: September 8 - September 11
Picture
The Heart
The Heart is the organ that pumps blood throughout the body. The heart has 4 chambers (2 Atriums and 2 Ventricals)
The right side of the heart fills with non oxygenated blood from the body. It then pumps to the lungs.

The left side of the heart receives oxygen rich blood from the lungs.

The left ventricle pumps blood out through the Aorta, the largest artery in the body.

The Aorta may be an Artery but it is also considered part of the heart.

Week #2: August 31 - September 4
Picture
The Cardiovascular System
The Cardiovascular System is the name that describes the Heart, Lungs, and Blood vessels of the body.
The Heart is the pump that pushes blood throughout the body.

The Lungs are your body's way of obtaining oxygen. Your lungs also help your body remove carbon dioxide.

The Blood Vessels are your arteries and veins. Arteries and veins are the way that your body uses to transport nutrients to your body's cells. 

Arteries cary blood away from your heart, and veins cary blood back towards your heart.


Week #1: August 25 - 28
