Let’s go step by step to label the skeleton correctly using the words from the table.

We’ll start at the top of the skeleton and work our way down, matching each bone to its correct name.

---

Head area:

- The big round bone on top → Skull
- The jawbone below it → Mandible

---

Shoulder and upper chest:

- The collarbone (horizontal bone near neck) → Clavicle
- The shoulder blade (behind the ribs, not visible in front but labeled on side) → Scapula
- The breastbone in the center of the chest → Sternum
- The curved bones around the chest → Ribcage

---

Spine and pelvis:

- The long backbone going down the middle → Spine
- The hip bones (big bowl-shaped structure) → Pelvis *(Note: “Pelvis” appears twice in the list — that’s okay, we use it once for this part)*

---

Arms:

- Upper arm bone → Humerus
- Forearm bones:
- Thumb-side bone → Radius
- Pinky-side bone → Ulna
- Wrist bones → Carpals
- Hand bones (palm) → Metacarpals
- Finger bones → Phalanges

*(Note: “Phalanges” also appears for toes — same word, different location. We’ll use it again later for feet.)*

---

Legs:

- Thigh bone (longest bone in body) → Femur
- Knee cap is not listed, so skip.
- Lower leg:
- Shin bone (front, thicker) → Tibia
- Outer thin bone → Fibula
- Ankle bones → Tarsals
- Foot bones (arch/sole) → Metatarsals
- Toe bones → Phalanges *(again — same as fingers)*

---

Now let’s double-check we’ve used all the words from the table:

Table has:
- Pelvis (used for hips)
- Scapula
- Pelvis (duplicate — maybe a trick? But we only need one pelvis label. Maybe they meant to write something else? Wait — looking again… actually, “Pelvis” is listed twice in the table — probably a typo or redundancy. We’ll just use it once.)
- Mandible
- Metatarsals
- Skull
- Metacarpals
- Phalanges (for hands)
- Carpals
- Humerus
- Clavicle
- Tibia
- Phalanges (for feet — same word, used twice)
- Fibula
- Femur
- Ribcage
- Tarsals
- Radius
- Ulna
- Sternum
- Spine

All words are accounted for!

Final Answer:

Here’s how to label the diagram from top to bottom, left to right where needed:

Head:
- Top of head → Skull
- Jaw → Mandible

Upper Body:
- Collarbone → Clavicle
- Shoulder blade → Scapula
- Breastbone → Sternum
- Ribs → Ribcage
- Backbone → Spine
- Hip bones → Pelvis

Arms (each arm):
- Upper arm → Humerus
- Forearm (thumb side) → Radius
- Forearm (pinky side) → Ulna
- Wrist → Carpals
- Palm → Metacarpals
- Fingers → Phalanges

Legs (each leg):
- Thigh → Femur
- Shin → Tibia
- Outer lower leg → Fibula
- Ankle → Tarsals
- Sole of foot → Metatarsals
- Toes → Phalanges

All labels match the word bank. You can now fill in the lines on your worksheet with these names!
