Muscles and joints by name: biceps, triceps, knees, elbows and the busiest muscles, sentence 4
Where two bones meet there is a joint, and each kind moves differently: the elbow and knee are hinges like a door, the shoulder and hip are balls in sockets, and a pivot at the top of your neck lets you shake your head «no».
Who acts: two bones, joint, kind, elbow, pivot, you · What happens: meet, be, move, let, shake · To what, where: hinges, balls, sockets, you, head
