Bones, Muscles & Movement

This honour is all about you – your bones, muscles and joints. They are fascinating pieces of ‘machinery’ and, as the scriptures declare “wonderfully made”.

You will gain a basic understanding of what our bones do, how they grow and how they (with medical assistance) repair themselves if they are broken.  Then there are your muscles.  Some work automatically (your heart and breathing for instance) while there are others that can be trained to do things such as talking, walking, catching a ball or threading a needle.

You’ll know the names of your vital bones and muscles.  You will make a simple model of one of your movable joint.  As was said before, this honour is all about you!
