This morning we will discuss about the nail and parts of the nail. At the end of
the lesson, I want that all of you should be able to identify the parts of the nail
and define what is nail.
1. Activity
Direction: Lable the different parts of the nail in the picture based on the
given words or on the words that you encircled in the puzzle.
2. Analysis

nail correctly?
2. Lets find out if they label the
parts of the nail correctly as
we go on in our discussion.
3. Abstraction
The nail is a plate of keratin that lies on the tips of the fingers and toes. The main use of
the nail is to protect the fingers and toes. It also assists with certain physical activities in the
daily life.
Our nail has seven parts the lunula, cuticle, free edge, matrix, nail bed, nail walls, and
lastly the nail palte.
1. Lunula- the pearly coloured and crescent shaped are of a fingernail or toenail.
2. Cuticle – the overlapping epidermis around the nail. It is the transparent skin, which
is called the ‘true cuticle’ which is removed during the manicuring process.
3. Free edge – the part of the nail that can be field and shaped. It is an extension nail
plate that overlaps the eponychium.
4. Matrix – the part of the nail situated directly beneath the cuticle. It produces the
cells that become the nail plate. It also contains blood vessels and nerves. Blood
supply provides the cells with nourishment. If the matrix is damaged the nail will
grow deformed.
5. Nail bed – the parts of the nail where the nail plate rests on, also a continuation of
the matrix and it is abundantly supplies with blood vessels and nerves.
6. Nail walls – the folds of the skin that overlap the sides of the nail. They hold your
nail in place and protect the nail plate edges.
7. Nail plate – is the visible nail that rests on the nail bed up to the free edge. This is
made up of dead cells and a minimum amount of moisture.
IV. Generalization
It is essential to take good care of our nails because it protects our fingers
and toes. It is also important to know its parts so that we already know what part
of our nail should be clean.
