Introduction
In every living organism, different systems are in place to keep the organism healthy and alive. Humans have several systems in their bodies to keep us alive and thriving. Through this unit, we are going to learn about five systems specifically: the Respiratory System, the Digestive System, the Cardiovascular System, the Musculoskeletal System, and the Immune System.
Task
Your task- Use your knowledge of the Respiratory, Digestive, Cardiovascular, Musculoskeletal, and Immune systems to create a project teaching others about their functions, parts, and processes.
I would like you to use Scratch to show what you have learned, but if you have another application you would like to use, you may if you get it approved by me. You have the choice to create one big project, including all five systems, or five small projects, one project for each system. Don't be afraid to show your creativity with this project as long as you are including the necessary information!
I can't wait to see what all of you create!
Process
Here are the steps you should follow to complete this project-
- Research: For each system, understand the function, parts, and process
- Check that resources are credible using the CRAAP test (Currency, Relevance, Authority, Accuracy, Purpose)
- Create your project(s): be sure to include the function, parts, and process of each system
- Be ready to present your final project(s) to your classmates!
