Exploring the Human Skeletal System

My students need a model of the human skeleton in order to visualize the human skeletal system with a closer look. My students also need a Periodic Table Chart.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. S.'s classroom raised $201

This project is fully funded

My Students

Let's educate the future doctors of our society! Biology and chemistry are two of the most important subject areas in science. With visuals like a human skeleton and Periodic Table of elements, students will have hands-on visuals for their studies!

I work in an urban school district with disadvantaged students.

All 160 of my students are very much intrigued with the study of study. I would like to create a classroom environment full of hands-on activities and visuals so students have an exciting view of the subject area of science.

My Project

By utilizing the human skeletal system model, students will be able to visualize more clearly the human skeleton. Students will be able to observe the importance of their own skeleton and understand the relations between the various body systems. Students will have an understanding of the different bones of the body and how they are connected. By using a Period Table, students will become familiar with the elements on Earth. Students will be able to visually observe the organization of the Period Table and its relevance to the elements locations on the chart.

Help the next generation have a wider understanding of science!

Science is an important subject area that students need to be exposed to. Students must understand the essentials of science. By having more visuals and materials in the classroom, students will be able to have a hands-on experience with the subject of science!
