1. "I can identify movements in the 3 planes of movement."

There are 3 major anatomic planes in the body. I retained the information through colored worksheets we went through in class. Also, online games like Quizzizz helped me remember the information in a creative and competitive way.

2. "I can identify all bones of the Appendicular Skeleton"

2512723 — 2023-09-21 15:51:17 UTC

The appendicular skeleton makes up the majority of the human skeleton. Regions include the pectoral and pelvic girdles, bones of the arms, forearms, wrists, hands, thighs, legs, and feet. Again, the Quizzizz and colored notes helped me remember this information.

3. "I can list the 6 characteristics of a synovial joint"

2512723 — 2023-09-21 15:52:21 UTC

I learned the 6 characteristics of a synovial joint through our worksheet and specific questions in the Quizzizz. There are 6 types of synovial joints. These include ball & socket, hinge, saddle, ellipsoid, pivot, and gliding.

1. I can summarize the function of skeletal and soft tissue anatomy for the shoulder

2512723 — 2023-12-18 17:09:14 UTC

I learned the muscles of the shoulder include the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, and the subscapularis. The supraspinatus abducts. I learned this from the coloring worksheet which is what helped me retain this information.

2.) I can summarize the function of skeletal and soft tissue anatomy for the ankle

2512723 — 2023-12-18 17:14:51 UTC

I learned the anatomy of the ankle includes the bottom of the tibia and fibula, the medial malleous, the lateral malleous and the talus. The ankle can do an inversion and eversion movement. I retained this information from the coloring worksheet and physically feeling the parts of the bone through wrapping.

3.) I can critique movements that are associated with specific joints

2512723 — 2023-12-18 17:15:01 UTC

I learned movements that are associated with certain joints through the joint action lab. Some muscles rotate, adduct, abduct, flex, etc. I enjoyed this lab because it was hands on and we got to see the different movements on our partners.

1. I can explain universal precautions

2512723 — 2023-12-19 16:44:40 UTC

A universal precaution one must always use in sports medicine is wearing latex gloves. When encountering blood it's especially important because you do not know the person's history. Videos we watched and class activities such as glove removal helped me retain this information.

2. I can identify the members of the sports medicine team

2512723 — 2023-12-19 16:59:06 UTC

The members of a sports medicine team are athletic trainers, chiropractors, and physical therapists. All together, these members help athletes feel their best and heal as fast as possible. I learned this from in class activities and videos.

3. I can differentiate the roles between different sports medicine professions

2512723 — 2023-12-19 17:02:00 UTC

Physical therapists help fully heal athletes from physical injures. Athletic trainers are the first people who initially respond to athletes injuries and temporarily help them. And finally, chiropractors work with athletes to improve mobility and quality of life.
