Does this happen to you? Is it happening right now as you are watching this?

Think of an example of a repetitive movement that can cause injury that happens in physical activity/sport and/or everyday life. Have you, or someone you know, ever had an injury from a repetitive movement?

Use the information you gathered about joints to complete the following graphic organizer.

You will create a presentation to describe the function of the skeletal and muscular systems and joint mechanics related to a human movement of your choice.

Use the RAFT chart below to select the Role you will adopt, the Audience to whom you will direct your information, the Format you will use to convey your information and your Topic, which is the movement skill you will describe.

Your presentation must include the following information:

1. a picture(s) of a movement skill
2. a description of movement of the major joint involved in the movement skill
3. a description of the bones and major muscles involved in the joint mechanics
4. a description of the vulnerability of the joint(s) involved (e.g., muscle imbalances, male/female differences, joint structure, limitations)
5. a description of current medical procedures for treatment (e.g., physiotherapy, arthroscopic surgery, ligament reconstruction, joint replacement) and why they are effective

The following document will help you organize your research.

Save your presentation to your Portfolio.
