8/14            Read Chapter 1 in Text .

 Review chapters 2 and 3.  Complete through p.44 in workbook. 

                HOMEOSTASIS

Start a vocabulary list for yourself! Check out the very last page of your text for prefixes, roots, and suffixes.  These terms can really help!  Also look at this medical terminology web site.  It might be useful to do some of the prefix and suffix activities throughout the semester to help with vocabulary.

9/29   Read Chapter 10. This chapter covers lever systems and naming of muscles and we cover this in lecture.  The rest of chapter 10 (p.285-339) discusses individual muscles and supports our lab activities.

MUSCLES TO KNOW FOR LAB

MUSCLES---Use critical thinking to identify where flexors, extensors, abductors and others will be.  Use critical thinking to identify origins and insertions.  Use critical thinking to identify action based on the location of the muscle. 

Here are 2 good sites to help learn the muscle names.  Use the quizes!
http://www.getbodysmart.com/
http://www.gwc.maricopa.edu/class/bio201/muscle/mustut.htm

For muscle anatomy, you are responsible for the muscles listed below. Find these muscles in your text p. 291-343 (most of chapter 11) and in the color book between p.112 and 125.  You need to be able to find them--you do not need to learn their origin, insertion, or action.
