Dem' Bones

Does anyone have a good online site to find a correct human skeleton that is labeled. I also need to understand the surfaces of each bone. I cried when I came home from A&P1 last night...lol..thanks..Sharon

I posted to you about maybe getting a Mr. Thrifty skeleton model on another thread. He really helped me. For a good skull tutorial, try this one: http://www.gwc.maricopa.edu/class/bio201/skull/skulltt.htm or this one: http://www.csuchico.edu/anth/Module/skull.html

Here is a link for the entire skeleton with self quizzes: http://msjensen.cehd.umn.edu/webanatomy/skeletal/default.html

Good luck!

I found this one helpful when I took A&P1 because it was most similar to our models we used in class.

Mr. Thrifty skeleton model??? What is that?

A 3 foot tall skeleton model. He comes on a stand, but can be removed. Just big enough to have detail, but small enough not to give the kids nightmares! The Mr. Thrifty part comes from his inexpensive price - like $40. I had intended to sell him after my anatomy course, but we saved him and put a hat on him for Halloween.

I loved this one:

they show drawings as well as real bones, very helpful.

Pick up a coloring book! It's wonderful and such a good study aide, as you are coloring the different bones and the surfaces it aso explains them, it was a HUGE help for me with the bones and muscles. they cost about 25$ and most major bookstores carry them.
