Engineering Models of a Knee Joint

 In Science this quarter, we have been studying the Human Body System.  Our focus this week was the skeletal and muscular systems.  We researched each body system, discussed our understanding and misconceptions, and developed diagrams.  In order to determine how the skeltal and muscular systems work together, we collaborated with our teams to engineer models of the knee joint.  The knee joints that we engineered showed how the systems work together to provide protection, support, and movement.  We are body systems experts!  Perhaps some of us will continue to become experts and pursue a job in the medical field.  We are preparing for our bright futures every day in Room 601!
