How You Can Help and Hurt your Skeletal
System?
Help:
You can help your skeletal system by brushing your teeth.
Milk, cheese and yoghurt have vitamin D. Vitamin D helps your bones
grow strong.
You should have three cups of milk every day
If you help your muscles by exercising your muscles will help your bones
because your muscles are connected to your bones
You can wear a helmet to protect your skull
You can help your skeletal system by exercising
Hurt:
When ligaments tear, twist or stretch you can get a sprain
If you forget to take vitamin D and C your bones will not be healthy
If you sit relaxing all day your bones will not get energy
If you drink too many diet sodas the sodas will harm the bones
If you eat plants such as spinach you will be healthy but if you dont eat
vegetables your bones wont be healthy.

How is the Skeletal System is
Connected to Your Other Systems?
Your bones are connected to your muscles and your
muscles are connected to other systems of the body.
Your tendons connect your bones and muscles together.
The skeletal system is connected to your nervous system
because your nerves go up and down your spine.
Your blood goes through your bones so your skeletal system
is connected to your circulatory system.
