friday feburary 8.

today:
we used today to catch up and review any material needed. also, students finished labeling the skull bones using the skull model.

dont forget:

the skull quiz is on friday.

i will post a list of websites on my documents page that you can use to practice labeling the skull. some of the websites feature bones and bone markings we have not covered, so just ignore those. other websites test you to see how much you know. overall they are good resources for practicing.

below is a list of bones and bone markings that you will need to be able to label on skull pictures for the quiz. you are responsible for everything on the list. also below are pictures of skull at three different views. these pictures are for those students who were not able to finish labeling their skull worksheet.
