Joints activity
Understanding Goals:
● H ow can I use a model to provide mechanistic accounts of movement in the human
body?
● How can I construct, use, and present an oral and written argument or
counter-arguments based on data and evidence regarding homeostasis?
Purpose:
- Students will identify one type of joint, its structure and function.
- Relate the joint’s function to a specific hike activity explaining how it moves in
the sport.
Class 1 and 2

activity and show the movement of the joint.
Product:
1. S lides presentation consisting of 2 slides, summarized and clear information
stating the type of joint, how it is its structure, and its function and movement.
2. Make a model of the joint that should show the movement of the joint and
should support atypical stresses.
Classes 3 and 4
oing the model of a joint.
D
Think of an activity where your joint will be used during the hike to the Amazonas. The
model should show the parts of the joint and how it is connected. The joint should
show the movement and it support atypical stress.
Class 5
Present the model to the class.
