5A's Project
Human Body Systems Project
1. Choose one of the following six human body
systems we have learned about:
·
The
Nervous System
·
The
Circulatory System
·
The
Respiratory System
·
The
Digestive System
·
The
Muscular System
·
The
Skeletal System
2. Your task is to make a 3-D model of one of these
systems and make a presentation about it to the class.
-Your model can be
functioning or not
-Your model can be
made out of clay, dry food, household objects, etc.
-Be creative!!!
-You must label the
following major organs of each system:
·
The
Nervous System-brain, nerves, spinal cord
·
The
Circulatory System-heart, arteries, veins, pulmonary artery, capillaries
·
The
Respiratory System-mouth, nose, trachea, lungs
·
The
Digestive System-mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine
·
The
Muscular System-triceps, biceps, abdominals, quadriceps, hamstring
·
The
Skeletal System-skull, sternum humerous, ulna, radius, phalanges, rib cage,
spine, pelvis, femur, patella, fibula, tibia
3. Create a presentation needs to be approximately
3 minutes in length. Your presentation needs to include:
1. The body system
you chose
2. Why you chose it
3. The major
processes the body system does
4. The functions of
each of the major organs (why they are each important)
5. Five interesting
facts about that system
6. Ways we can keep
the body system healthy
7. Creativity-Think
about how you can present your information in a creative way:
infomercial, news
report, using technology, etc.
4. Use your notes,
handouts, books, home research, etc. to help you do your best work on this
project.
DUE DATE: April 12
Please attach rubric to project.
