8/15 Read
Chapter 1 in Text and 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.
8/22 Read Chapter 4 .
Learn the bones of the
body-start with those listed on lab worksheet #2. The color book has a
full skeleton on p. 93.
This website is great for studying
the skull-- http://www.gwc.maricopa.edu/class/bio201/skull/antskul.htm
This will quiz you on names of the bones.
Don't forget that you need to know the names and their spellings.

9/26 Read Chapter 10. Chapter 10 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.
Lab Practical 9/29 over planes, cavities, tissues, skin, bones of skeleton, markings of axial skeleton. Turn in color book completed to p. 94.
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.
10/3 MUSCLES TO KNOW
For muscle anatomy, you are responsible for the muscles listed below. Find these muscles in your text p. 315-378 (most of chapter 11) and in the color book between p.111 and 125. You need to be able to find them--you do not need to learn their origin, insertion, or action. We will use critical thinking to figure out their action based on their locations and attachment points.
