Complete and ready to use lesson covering: Skeleton + Joints + Muscles This is a KS3 lesson, in this lessons students learn among other things: To describe the functions of the skeleton and the role of joints. To name bones and understand where within the skeleton specific bones are located. To understand the different types of joints. To investigate and also explain antagonistic muscle pairs. Activities for students include: 3 short starters based on picture for thinking, SPaG/literacy and thinking about what the skeleton is for (use 1 or all as you see fit). Differentiated activity sheets. All answers are provided throughout. Gap fills. Video. Animated game - via a link to an excellent site that is well worth finding ! Questioning (all answers provided). Label the skeleton activity sheet (diagrams and answers are included in this download). Joints gap fill. Practical experiment. Plenary quiz. Further information: This lesson covers 3 topics, skeleton and joints and muscles. Consequently it covers all the important points but is not as detailed as spending 1 full hour lesson on each of these 3 topics (3 hours total). This lesson is very useful, even more so if you want to get ahead and build a buffer to allow for a revision lesson before the test or end of year exams, or if you have fallen behind were you should be in comparison to your teaching rota, or in case students find things more difficult later. If you need deep detail and to spend a total of 3 hours on these three topics then you could easily add some of your own content to this powerpoint. Happy teaching !
