Let’s label the skeleton step by step using the word bank provided.
We’ll go from top to bottom, left and right as needed, matching each arrow to the correct bone name.
---
Top left (pointing to head):
This is the
skull — it’s the bony structure that holds the brain and face.
Second box down on left (pointing to neck area):
That’s the
neck bone — also called the cervical spine, but in simple terms, we call it “neck bone” here.
Right side, upper middle (pointing to chest area):
Those curved bones protecting the heart and lungs are the
ribs.
Below ribs, pointing to spine:
The long vertical bone running down the back is the
backbone (also called the spine or vertebral column).
Left side, below backbone (pointing to pelvis/hip area):
That wide, bowl-shaped bone at the top of the legs is the
hip bone.
Right side, pointing to upper leg:
The long bone from hip to knee is the
thigh bone (femur).
Left side, pointing to knee joint:
The small bone at the front of the knee is the
knee bone (patella).
Below knee, pointing to lower leg:
The long bone from knee to ankle is the
leg bone (tibia/fibula — simplified as “leg bone” here).
Bottom left, pointing to foot:
The bones at the very bottom are the
foot bone.

Now let’s list them in order from top to bottom, left to right as they appear in the worksheet:
1. Skull
2. Neck bone
3. Ribs
4. Backbone
5. Hip bone
6. Thigh bone
7. Knee bone
8. Leg bone
9. Foot bone
✔ All labels match the word bank and anatomical positions.
Final Answer:
Skull, neck bone, ribs, backbone, hip bone, thigh bone, knee bone, leg bone, foot bone
