Unit Theme:   Human Body

FCAT Standards:
Processes of Life
Standard 1:
The student describes patterns of structure and function
in living things. (SC.F.1.3)
                1. understands that living things are composed of major systems that function in reproduction,                            growth, maintenance, and regulation.
                2. knows that the structural basis of most organisms is the cell and most organisms are single cells,
                    while some, including humans, are multicellular.
                3. knows that in multicellular organisms cells grow and divide to make more cells in order to form
                    and repair various organs and tissues.
                4. knows that the levels of structural organization for function in living things include cells,                                   tissues, organs, systems, and organisms.
                5. explains how the life functions of organisms are related to what occurs within the cell.
                6. knows that the cells with similar functions have similar structures, whereas those with different
                    structures have different functions.
                7. knows that behavior is a response to the environment and influences growth, development,                              maintenance, and reproduction.

Books:  Human Body  by Richard Walder (Kingfisher Knowledge)

Videos:  Bill Nye: Digestion
               Bill Nye: Blood and Circulation
               Bill Nye: Respiration
               Bill Nye: Bones and Muscles
              Bill Nye: Brain

Project:  Students will create a paper model of the organs of the human body. This
model will name each organ, identify the body system(s) organs belong to and     
explain the functions of the organs.                        
* All students will need to buy a white poster board and bring it to school        by Friday (the latest) in order to complete their project. Poster boards will be sold by the school for $1.00 if students are unable to purchase them elsewhere.
