Lesson 2:
Synovial joints
29/04/2017
Starter activity
Identify the following:
Extension
What is a synovial joint?
What are the two types
of synovial joint?
●
A strong non-elastic cord, joining muscle to bone
●
An irregular bone in the knee joint
●
The lining inside the joint that releases synovial fluid
●
A tough and flexible tissue that acts as a buffer between bones
●
Two articulating bones at the knee joint
●
An elastic fibre that attaches bone to bone, keeping joints stable
●
Tissue that stops synovial fluid from escaping and holds the bones together
●
A floating liquid-filled sac inside a joint that reduces friction between tendons and bones
●
A lubricating liquid that stops articulating bones rubbing together at joints
Identify what type of
joint the shoulder,
elbow, hip, knee and
ankle are.
Word Bank:
Bursae; Synovial fluid; Joint capsule; Ligaments; Patella; Cartilage; Tendons; Synovial membrane
Learning
Challenges
➔ Define a synovial joint
➔ Understand the types of movement
possible at each type of joint
➔ Apply understanding of joints to
sporting contexts
Activity 1: Joint action and movement
Match the key terms with the correct definition and complete worksheet 1.4
Extension
Flexion
Movement at the ankle joint that points the toes and increases the
angle at the joint
Extension
Movement of a bone or limb towards the midline of the body
Rotation
Movement at the ankle joint that flexes the foot upwards and
decreases the angle at the joint
Abduction
A circular movement around a joint/movement around an axis
Adduction
Increase in the angle of bones at a joint
Dorsiflexion
Movement of a bone or limb away from the midline of the body
Plantar flexion
Decrease in the angle of bones at a joint
Which movements are
possible at the elbow,
shoulder, hip, knee and
ankle?
5 minutes
Activity 2: Sporting examples
Analyse the following videos:
What joint/s? (ankle, knee etc.) 1 mark
What type of joint (hinge etc.) 1 mark
Which bones articulate at the joint? 2 marks
Define the movement is occurring at the joint? 2 marks
Extension
Analyse a sporting
movement that you
execute on a regular
basis
15 minutes
Key terms
An area of the body where two or more articulating bones meet
Exam tips
Flexion
Decrease in the angle of bones at a joint
Synovial joints are also
known as freely
moveable joints.
Extension
Increase in the angle of bones at a joint
Rotation
A circular movement around a joint/movement around an axis
Abduction
Movement of a bone or limb away from the midline of the body
Synovial joint
Adduction
Movement of a bone or limb towards the midline of the body
Dorsiflexion
Movement at the ankle joint that flexes the foot upwards and decreases the
angle at the joint
Plantar flexion
Movement at the ankle joint that points the toes and increases the angle at
the joint
It is important to
understand the link
between the skeleton,
joints and the
movements they enable.
This topic is closely
linked to the practical
component. You need to
be aware of specific
movements required in
your chosen activities.

Home Learning
● Read pages 12-13 in the textbook up
to, but not including, ‘muscles and
movement’
● Remember the muscles and
corresponding bones and joints and
complete worksheet 1.5
● Second person in the register adds
the key terms to the Moodle glossary
This should be completed by next lesson.
These slides along with the textbook page
required and blank diagram will be on
Moodle.
