List of Materials
This list of materials shows the quantities needed for a standard 24-seat lab, with six tables and
four seats at each table.
Human skeleton
Model of the knee
6–24 sets of the following disarticulated bones of upper and lower extremities
(at least 1 per table):
Clavicle
Scapula
Humerus
Ulna
Radius
Carpals
Metacarpals
Phalanges of the fingers
Coxal bone (ilium, ischium, and pubis)
To Do in Advance
____ 1. Position skeleton and knee model(s) where they are accessible.
____ 2. Set bones out on lab tables.
____ 3. Set colored pencils out at each seat.
____ 4. Review the bones yourself in advance.
Activity 8.1: Upper Limb: Examining the Bones of the Pectoral Girdle
Learning Outcome: Identify the bones of the pectoral girdle and their bone markings and explain
how these bones articulate.
Show your students how the acromion and coracoid process point to the shoulder, thus
making it easier to determine to which side of the body a scapula belongs. They can also
palpate the scapular spine on each other. They should also be able to palpate the acromion at
the tip of the shoulder and the coracoid coming forward a bit medial to that.

Activity 8.2: Upper Limb: Examining the Bones of the Arm and Forearm
Learning Outcome: Identify the bones of the arm and forearm and their bone markings and explain
how these bones articulate.
Students sometimes have trouble distinguishing anterior and posterior views of the humerus.
Point out that the olecranon fossa, which is posterior, is much deeper than the anterior side’s
coronoid fossa. Also, having just learned the coracoid process on the scapula, students often
confuse “coracoid” and “coronoid.”
Students may have trouble understanding that pronation and supination do not occur at the
elbow and wrist. Demonstrate these motions on an articulated skeleton so they see that the
action, instead, occurs at the two radioulnar joints.
Make students aware that if they palpate the medial epicondyle in just the right location,
they could compress the ulnar nerve. Explain that the ulnar nerve passes superficially along
the posterior surface of the medial epicondyle. The medial epicondyle is called the “funny
bone” because compression of the nerve at this location can cause a tingling sensation along
the medial aspect of the forearm and hand.
Activity 8.3: Upper Limb: Examining the Bones of the Wrist and Hand
Learning Outcome: Identify the bones of the wrist and hand and their bone markings and explain
how these bones articulate.
Provide a mnemonic device for the students to use to memorize the names and order of the
carpal bones. One good example is the following: Sam likes to push the toy car hard. You
might write that on the board and list the corresponding bones under each word. Or, enlarge
an illustration of the wrist bones and label each with the corresponding words from the
mnemonic and also the names of the bones. Encourage them to develop their own mnemonics
(but don’t be shocked by what they come up with! Hey, if it helps them remember…). They
can add their mnemonic to their sketch.
Remind them that all the fingers have three phalanges except the thumb, which has only a
proximal and a distal. They tend to look at the first metacarpal and count that as the proximal
phalanx.
On the skeleton, demonstrate for your students the importance of anatomical position. In
that position, the radius and ulna are parallel instead of crossed, and the radius and thumb are
lateral.
Activity 8.4: Lower Limb: Examining the Bones of the Pelvic Girdle
Learning Outcome: Identify the bones of the pelvic girdle and their bone markings and explain
how these bones articulate.
As with Activity 8.1, advise students that they can identify the bones from illustrations first
so they do not all go to the skeleton at one time. If you have models of the extremities, they
may also be used to alleviate some of the traffic at the skeleton, but stress that they also need
to view the bones on the articulated skeleton as well.
Stress that they compare the bones of the upper and lower extremities, keeping in mind
that lower extremity bones are used not only for locomotion, but also to support body weight.
The upper extremity bones are used for fine motor skills and other movements, but normally
are not used to support the body. Along this line, have them examine the sacrum, coxal
bones, and femur to see how the surfaces that transmit upper body weight to the lower body
are expanded for this purpose.
Activity 8.5: Lower Limb: Examining the Bones of the Thigh and Leg
Learning Outcome: Identify the bones of the thigh and leg and their bone markings and explain
how these bones articulate.
Having students estimate height by measuring the femur gives them practice in using the
scientific process, measurement, and data analysis.
When students are palpating their patella and tibial tuberosity, explain the connection of
the quadriceps tendon/patellar ligament. Students struggle a bit with the medial and lateral
malleoli, because they have trouble understanding that the tibia is the medial leg bone and so
forms the medial malleolus. This is especially challenging when they are asked to determine
to which side of the body a tibia belongs. They tend to think of their lateral ankle bone
(lateral malleolus) and then jump to the conclusion that this is from the tibia.

MAKING CONNECTIONS: The clavicle acts as a strut to hold the upper extremity out away
from the axial skeleton, allowing us more freedom of movement for our arms. If there was
no clavicle, the scapula would likely shift inferiorly and anteriorly and the shoulder would
be much less mobile.

MAKING CONNECTIONS:
The male bony pelvis is designed primarily to contain internal structures within the pelvic
cavity. Although the female bony pelvis shares this function, it also has to allow for
growth of a fetus during pregnancy and ultimately for childbirth. A wider bony pelvis
provides better support during fetal development and allows easier delivery of the child.

C 3.
MAKING CONNECTIONS: The patella is a sesamoid bone that forms within the tendon of
the quadriceps femoris muscles. It shields the front of the knee joint and reduces the wear
and tear on the quadriceps tendon when the knee bends. The patella also acts as a pulley to
make movement at the knee joint more efficient.
Looking Back
1. Bones of the lower limb transmit our body weight to the ground, and thus need
to be sturdier.
2. The foot is designed for stability and support, whereas the hand is designed for
dexterity and is capable of fine motor skills.
