Summary: Bone is an essential element for humans, as it serves as the cantilever for the body. It enables humans to have a solid form and to make a movement. There are four types of bones, long, short, flat and irregular bone. It also protects the inner organ, which is sensitive to any external accident. Learning about the skeleton system has many benefits for the students as a career preparation or as an individual. 

What is the Explanation of Bones?

Bone is an essential element for humans, as it serves as the cantilever for the body. It enables humans to have a solid form and to make a movement. Bones act as the structure of human bodies. The adult human skeleton has 206 bones inside their bodies. The skull, spine (vertebrae), ribs, arms and legs are some of those bones. Bones consist of protein, collagen, minerals and connective tissue full of calcium and some particular bone cells. The tissue has four layers, periosteum, compact or dense tissue, spongy or cancellous tissue and bone marrow. Most bones also contain bone marrow, which is the producing place of blood cells. Bones work in tandem with muscles and joints for humans to hold the body in place and help it move. All these works are brought by the body's system, known as the musculoskeletal. The tissues in the human bones will constantly change (bone remodelling). The change occurs naturally as the human grows old. Three types of cells work in bone remodelling, osteoblasts, osteoclasts and osteocytes.

How Many Types of Bones Are There?

According to the Better Health of Victoria Government, there are four types of bones, long, short, flat and irregular bone. Long bone consists of a shaft and two ends. It is a type of long bone rather than wide bone. It has a thick compact outside layer and an inner medullary cavity with bone marrow inside. The edge part of the long bone retains spongy bone and an epiphyseal line. Long bones are located in the appendicular skeleton and lower and upper limbs. Short bones have a rough cube shape and, for the most part, are made of spongy bones. It helps humans to move their wrists and ankle. It is a wide bone type. Flat bones have a thin and flat shape; and sometimes a slight curve. It is a place for the muscle to attach and protect the internal organ. Some examples of flat bones are frontal, parietal, occipital, nasal, lacrimal bones, vomer bones, sternum and ribs, scapula, and coxal bone (Ilium, pubis and ischium). Irregular bones have various shapes and structures. Hence they do not fit into other categories. They have a complicated form, and they protect the internal organ of the human. 

What is Human Skeleton System?

The bones in the human body use oxygen and produce waste products in metabolism. The bone has active tissues that devour nutrients, demand a blood supply and change shape or remodel in response to deviations in mechanical stress. Bones are the foundation of the human solid and rigid framework known as the skeleton. It also protects the inner organ, which is sensitive to any external accident.

The skeletal system is a network of many bones features that work in tandem to help humans move. The essential part of the human skeletal system consists of bones. Human has 206 bones, and each bone dwells in three layers, periosteum, compact bone and spongy bone. It also has other elements, such as cartilage, joints, ligaments and tendons. The skeleton helps the body to stand and move against the force of gravity. It works in tandem with the muscle to enable movement. 

How to Teach Human Skeleton System?

Teaching about the human skeleton to young students can be challenging as the lesson is complicated. Below are some learning tips that parents and teachers can follow:

• Begin the lesson by teaching the students about the basic knowledge of the skeleton system.
• Utilize visual aids as the learning medium, such as books with pictures, videos, worksheets, or posters.
• Use bone replicas to help the students imagine what they learn.
• Highlight bones that the students can recognize, such as the skull, spine, ribs, arms and legs.
• Connect the lesson with daily life.
• Incorporate the study with fun and exciting activities, such as games, quizzes or songs.
• Ask the students to do an engaging project. 
• Visit museums or educational parks to get more perspective of the lesson.

Why is Learning Human Skeleton System Important?

The skeleton system has an essential role in human existence. It helps humans to have a solid structure which supports them to move. Hence, learning about this system has many benefits for the students. It will help them understand their body and what happens inside humans. Studying the skeletal system will help the students understand human anatomy, physiology and overall health system. It will be the knowledge foundation for the student's future studies. In conclusion, learning about the skeleton system has many benefits for the students as a career preparation or as an individual.
