Very important that you understand
directional terms are used relative to the
midline of the body.
There will be a difference if you are referring
to bipeds vs. quadripeds (man vs. dog)
Worksheet: Terms of position and direction
Color as instructed.
Use p. 12-13 and quiz a partner on orientation
of body. Use sentence stems provided on p.
13 if that helps you, or make up your own.

Anterior Vs. Posterior body landmarks, color
in the sheets and study the terms. Use p. 13
as a study guide for the terms and meanings.
This is like learning a new language, it will
take a little time and work to get it.
If you like flashcards make some with the
term on 1 side and the description or picture
on the other.
Take a surface anatomy worksheet and try to
fill in the labels when you feel comfortable
with the new terms.
