I learned lots of exciting things about the skeletal system, I I learned lots of exciting things about the skeletal system, I learned that when babies are born they have about 350 bones in learned that when babies are born they have about 350 bones in their bodies, but when they get older they have 206 bones in their their bodies, but when they get older they have 206 bones in their body. A joint holds your bones together where they meet. The end body. A joint holds your bones together where they meet. The end of each joint is covered by cartilage. I learned so much about the of each joint is covered by cartilage. I learned so much about the skeletal system.skeletal system.

Skeletal SystemSkeletal System A good way to make your bones strong is to

drink lots of milk. Some good exercises for your bones are

tennis, walking, hiking, or dancing.

The skeletal system has many important functions. Some of these functions include providing shape for our bodies, allowing bodily movement, making blood for the body, and it also stores 206 bones!!!! Also, the softer tissues of the body are attached to the skeletal system. The brain is also protected by bones and so are the heart and lungs. Muscles are connected to bones by tendons and where bones meet another bone is usually called a joint. Those are some important facts about the skeletal system.http://www.mnsu.edu/emuseum/biology/humananatomy/skeletal/skeletalsystem .html

Here are some facts I know about the skeletal system. I know that without the skeletal system you would be a blob of goo. I also learned that the skeletal system is all of the bones in my body and that there are 206 bones in my body. I also learned that your teeth are not counted as bones, but they are still considered part of the skeletal system. I also learned that babies have more bones than adults!!! It is also pretty cool that you can make your bones strong by just running or jogging. It was really cool learning about the skeletal system!

•. Eat lots of fruit and vegetables. They help your muscles stay strong.

•Stretch before exercising, so you don’t pull a muscle.

A muscle is the contractile tissue of animals and is derived from the mesodermal layer of embryonic cells. Muscle cells actually contain contractile filaments that move past each other and change the size of thecell. They are classified as skeletal, cardiac, or smooth muscles. They produce force and they cause motion. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscle

I learned so many things about muscles! I learned That you have to stretch before you exercise or Else you could dislocate your muscle. I learned That foods like fish, fruit, ( as long as you don’t havetoo much) and veggies are good for your bones. I also learned about what bones were made out of. (Contractiletissue) It was really gross and exciting!

•You should only work out for 30-40 minutes a day, but no more or else your muscles can get strained. •You should only work out for 30-40 minutes a day, but no more or else your muscles can get strained.

•Make sure you stay hydrated while you work out.•Make sure you stay hydrated while you work out.

There are more than 600 muscles in your body. Those amazing muscles do everything. They pump blood through your body, and help you lift heavy things. You control a lot of your muscles, but others, like the heart work by themselves. Isn’t that interesting? http://kidshealth.org/kid/htbw/muscles.html

I learned tons of things about muscles. I learned that there are 3 types of muscles. They are called smooth muscles, cardiac muscles, and skeletal muscles. I learned that thousands of small fibers make up a muscle. I learned that there are muscles behind your eyes too. Muscles are fun to learn about!!!

The nervous system is very complex. It has tons of parts. It is divided into two main systems, the central nervous system, and the peripheral nervous system. The spinal cordand the brain make up the central nervous system. Its main job is to get the information from the body and send instructions to other parts of the body. The peripheral nervous system is made up of all the nerves and the wiring. This system sends the messages from the brain to the rest if the body.

The nervous system is very cool! It helps you withsmelling, seeing, hearing, laughing, and even breathing.It is made up of your brain, your spinal cord, and your nerves. It helps you with blinking, walking and pretty much, thinking. That is because your brain is one of the parts! You could never survive without it!

Your circulatory system is very exciting! It is made up of tiny vessels and the many muscles that help and control the flow of your blood around your body. This fabulous process is called circulation. The main parts of your circulatory system are your heart, arteries, capillaries, and, last but not least your veins!

The Respiratory SystemThe Respiratory System

http://www.apparelyzed.com/_images/content/respritory/Respiratory-System.jpg

How do people breath? They use the respiratory system, of course! This is how you breath using the respiratory system. Your diaphragm and other muscles help you breath. Those muscles change the space and pressure that is inside your body to accommodate breathing. When your diaphragm pulls down, it doesn’t only leave more space for the lungs, but it also lowers the internal air pressure. Isn’t that cool? http://yucky.discovery.com/flash/body/pg000138.html

The respiratory system is fabulous! It controls your breathing! Here are some cool facts about the respiratory system. The air that we breath out has about 100 times more carbon dioxide than the airwe breath in. Every minute you should breath in about 13 pints of air! I learned so much about the respiratory system.

It helps to exercise until you are out of breath to keep your system healthy!Try to hold your breath as long as you can to make your lungs healthy.

The HeartThe Hearthttp://www.biomaterials.org/SIGS/Cardiovascular/images/cv_anatomy_heart.jpg

The HeartThe Heart The human heart works tirelessly. In an average lifetime the heart beats about two and a half billion times. It will never pause and rest. Hearts provide power needed for life. Your heart is actually sort of shaped like an upside down pear. The heart is very cool. It is made up of 4 cavities, you could also call them open spaces. Two of those 4 cavities are called atria and the other 2 are called ventricles. The heart is more complex than most people think.

Don’t rush to get ready for work. Get up 15 minutes earlier.Avoid prepared foods. Almost all are loaded with fat, sugar, and salt.

http://www.fi.edu/learn/heart/all-heart-pages.html

I learned lots about the heart. The heart is a pump. The left side of people’s hearts have 2 chambers, they are called the left atrium and the left ventricle. The right side of your heart has 2 connected changes too. The heart is part of the circulatory system too. It pumps blood through your body. The heart has many jobs.
