In this 8 week course, students will investigate five main body systems with home experiments, virtual labs, and games to explore the wonders of the human body!
Class experience
US Grade 6 - 8
Many students already have an innate knowledge that the human body can do extraordinary things even if they don’t yet know why or how. If they are in sports they may ask, “Why do inhalers help some people breathe?” or “Why do we feel more energized after eating a snack or a meal before a game?” After stubbing their toe on the door they may ask “Why does it hurt so much more to stub my toe than hit my arm?” These questions and more will guide students through a tour of the human body in this...
Learners will be able to list the levels of organization from cells to organisms. Learners will be able to identify the structures and functions of the digestive system. Learners will be able to describe how humans process food and gain energy from nutrients. Learners will be able to identify the structures and functions of the cardiovascular system. Learners will be able to model the flow of blood through the heart, arteries, veins, and capillaries. Learners will be able to identify the structures and functions of the respiratory system. Learners will be able to model the exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen in the blood and in the lungs. Learners will be able to identify the structures and functions of the nervous system. Learners will be able to use evidence from an experiment to explain how messages are sent from the brain to the body and back. Learners will be able to identify the structures and functions of the muscular skeletal system. Learners will be able to observe the differences between different types of muscle cells (skeletal, smooth, and cardiac) from images under the microscope. Learners will be able to build a model to represent the body system of their choice and evaluate the strengths and limits of their model.
I have taught middle school science for 5 years and have taught this topic both online and in person. I have a middle school science teaching license in the state of Ohio.
Homework Offered
During week 5, students will need to conduct an experiment outside of class time with the help of a sibling, parent, or friend. (15 - 20 minutes)0 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Students will be assessed through their work on an end of unit project completed during week 7 and 8.Grades Offered
Materials: bread, plastic bag, vinegar, 2 empty tubes of toothpaste, bag of skittles, timer, 2 different colored markers, access to a printer to print worksheets. Simple miscellaneous materials for building an at home project. Examples: extra straws, balloons, play dough, clay, cardboard, chopsticks, pipe cleaners, plastic tubing, old toothpaste containers, empty paper towel rolls, etc. This project will be completed in the final 2 weeks of class and materials will vary depending on the body system your child chooses. However, the projects will ideally be build with materials you already have around the house or basic, low cost items from the dollar store.
In this class we will talk about topics regarding human anatomy such as blood, bones, tissues, etc. If your child is sensitive to these topics please consider this before signing up!
