General guide to this scavenger hunt

To complete this scavenger hunt, use the hints in this guide and the wordbank on page 1 of the worksheet to fill in the corresponding blanks on pages 2-4 of the activity worksheet. Follow the hints in order- each hint builds off a previous one. Use the images on your worksheet together with your physical knee kit; combining the 2D images with the 3D model will help you recognize the structures from multiple views.

There are 43 structure names but more than 43 blanks - you’ll use some of the names more than once to help you recognize structures from different views. Each structure has a unique letter associated with it; these letters are included with the blanks on pages 2-4. If two blanks have the same letter (on different pages), that means it’s the same structure. This is useful for checking your work afterward but try to avoid using this to help you as you fill in each blank. The more you use the hints in this guide to fill in the blanks, the better you’ll remember the structures later.

The hints make extensive use of anatomical directional terms (e.g., superior, inferior, anterior, etc.) to help you build fluency with this language and anatomical reasoning; use the diagram on page 1 of the worksheet to help you.
