Bone Modelproject
Bone Modelproject
Name:
For this project, you will be using your creativity to create a physical 3D model of a long bone.
Why a long bone? It has all of the important structures in it and it also gives you more to see than
another type of bone.
You have a few choices for this project.
Would you like to work alone or with a partner? You may choose ONE other person to work
with. Read the statement at the bottom of this page, fill it out, and submit it to the instructor.
Use materials from the grocery store, hardware store, craft store, or where ever to make a
model of a bone!
Must include the major structures defined below
Must be 3 dimensional (3D) which means a drawing or just paper is not acceptable
Justify (explain) what materials you used and why it was fitting for the bone
BE CREATIVE!
Required structures:
Compact bone
Spongey bone
Periosteum
Yellow marrow
Red marrow
Nerves
Blood vessels
Diaphysis
Cartilage
Medullary Cavity
Together as a table, brainstorm what you would like to use for each structure and explain why you
would that material in your model.

equally with my partner. I accept any praises and consequences we receive as a pair. I agree to
getting the same grade as my partner for this project therefor we will work together to achieve our
highest potential.

Student attempted to
incorporate novel
materials but they
did not work for the
structures
Model is put
together but some
elements could be
cleaner
Student tried to
use new materials
or other materials
in a novel way.
Some elements
did not work

Structures are
similar to real
bones but not

Student works
during class but
gets off task easily
Round Robin

Structures
represented are not

All structures
included and
represented in model
All structures are
labeled
Model is well put
together and easy to
understand
Student(s) used
materials in novel
ways to convey
meaning. The
materials used work
very well for the
structures
represented.
Structures
represented are in
real bones and colors
are close to that of a
real bone
Student participates
with classmates and
partner to complete
task efficiently.
Student was actively
participating in the
Round Robin and
helped classmates
understand materials
