7th Grade Human Body Systems Project - Chopin Elementary
7th& 8th Grade Human Body Systems Project
Your task is to research all the systems that make the human body. You will present your information to the class. How you present your information is up to you or the group you are working with. Ideas for your presentation include:
A 3-D model
Develop a power-point presentation
Make a book
Create a game
INFORMATION THAT MUST BE INCLUDED:
The function of the system
The organs in this system
Brief and simple explanation of the function of EACH organ in the system
Description of how this system works with other systems
Illnesses that can affect the organs in this system (briefly describe them)
Other interesting facts
PROJECT REQUIREMENTS:
• You may work in a group of no more than 2 people or you may work on a project by yourself.
• If you choose to work in a group all members must share the work as equally as possible since each student will be graded on the research they did as well as their contribution to the final presentation.
• All work must be completed by the deadline and the project must be ready to present on the assigned day. No late work will be accepted.
• As each person/group makes their presentation students will complete a checklist which will also factor into their overall grade.
RESEARCH EXPECTATIONS
You must use at least 3 different resources per person or group. All research must be cited appropriately on the research summary sheet for your system.
Possible Resources:
Organ Systems for Project
Muscular system
Skeletal system
Nervous system
Respiratory system
Circulatory system
Digestive system
Excretory system
Endocrine system
This project will be due on _____June 1st_
