Value of Activities for SEHS Classroom:

These activities provide SEHS students with a comprehensive understanding of human movement, muscle function, and biomechanics. Through hands-on experiments, students will gain practical insights into how anatomical structures and physiological processes support athletic performance and injury prevention.

List of Activities and Summations:

  1. Anatomical Position and Movements:
    Explores the anatomical position and demonstrates various movements in different planes and axes of the human body.
  2. Muscular Function and Types of Contractions:
    Examines different types of muscle contractions (isometric, concentric, eccentric) and their roles in movement and stability.
  3. Structure and Function of Connective Tissues and Joints:
    Investigates how different connective tissues and joint structures contribute to movement and support.
  4. Levers in Movement and Sport:
    Analyzes the three classes of levers in the human body and their impact on mechanical advantage in sports.
  5. The Sliding Filament Theory:
    Explains muscle contraction at the molecular level, focusing on the interaction between actin and myosin filaments.
