How do cells create organs and systems in the human body? What are the basic functions of those systems? What are inherited characteristics and learned behaviors? Language Arts: What can we learn about human body systems and heredity by reading? How can we write to show the steps we have used in the scientific method? How can adjectives help our written science descriptions? Math: How can Venn diagrams help sort items that are the same or different? How is a bar graph drawn to show totals with provided data? What conclusions can we draw from the data portrayed by the graph? Guiding Questions How are measurements used to gather and record data? How are different measurements converted to other measurements? (cm‐in‐ft) How can we use addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and percentages to solve problems? How are ratios used to solve problems? Social Studies: How can we use information to solve a societal problem? Art: How can we draw/illustrate and label sketches for a science notebook?

Constructed response (math, language arts, science) that is based on the unit ideas and concepts Standards & Benchmarks ◊ 5.1.1 Scientific Inquiry Identify the variables in scientific investigations and recognize the importance of controlling variables in scientific experiments ◊ 5.1.2 Scientific Inquiry Formulate and defend conclusions based on evidence ◊ 5.2.1 Unifying Concepts and Themes Use models and/or simulations to represent and investigate features of objects, events, and processes in the real world · 5.4.1 Cells, Tissues, Organs, and Organ Systems Describe the structures of the human body and how they work together to sustain life · 5.5.1 Heredity Recognize that some traits of living things are inherited and others are learned Big Idea(s) / Major Understanding(s): Students will understand that... The human body is made of trillions of cells. Cells group to form tissues, tissues build organs, and organs work together to comprise a body system. Organs make up the skeletal, muscular, nervous, digestive, respiratory, circulatory and excretory systems that work together to sustain a human's life.

Offspring inherit some of their physical traits from their parents while behavioral traits are learned. Sample Performance Rubrics Topic Heredity Benchmark SC.5.5.1 Recognize that some traits of living things are inherited and others are learned Sample Performance Assessment (SPA) The student: Recalls inherited traits (e.g., eye color, flower color) and learned characteristics (e.g., riding a bicycle). Rubric Advanced Partially Proficient Proficient Novice Make generalizations Recognize that some traits Identify, from a list of traits, Recall that living things about inherited and of living things are inherited those that are inherited and inherit some of their learned traits (e.g., and others are learned those that are learned traits inherited traits cannot be changed and learned traits can be changed) Topic Cells, Tissues, Organs, and Organ Systems Benchmark SC.5.4.1 Describe the structures of the human body and how they work together to sustain life Sample Performance Assessment (SPA) The student: Describes how organs or organ systems work together in the human body to sustain life (e.g., heart and lungs, digestive system, and excretory system). Advanced Proficient Partially Proficient Novice Compare human body systems in terms of the structures and relationships that exist within them Describe the structures of the human body and how they work together to sustain life Identify the structures of the human body and how these structures work together to sustain life Name the structures of the human body and state that they work together to sustain life Lessons Summary Resource Lesson Title Harcourt Chapter 1: Text Getting Ready for Science Chapter 1: Chapter 1: Getting Ready for Science Harcourt Chapter 1: Text Getting Ready for Science What students will be able to know, do & understand “Using Science Tools” use the textbook as a resource to learn about the different science tools. Getting Ready for Science pretest Measuring Up lab LM 13‐15 ‐ focus is on using the tools and measuring systems. The extension of the lesson can focus on variables and creating their own experiment Design an Airplane LM 16‐18 (10paperairplanes.com) – use the designs and use the inquiry skills to test the designs. Focus can be on using metric measurements (meter sticks) to measure Use AIMS ruler and have students make for their individual use. The Investigate Further LM18 focuses on adding a new variable (paper clip weight) and having them draw new conclusions.

They make a poster/tech presentation to teach the class the system. Everyone else writes in their notebook about each system – *** Use John’s BODY BUDDY with organs*** All students will complete a graphic notes sheet (name of system, purpose/function which includes tissues/organs within a system = description as they view the presentations) OR Body Systems Powerpoint – describe the system and then explain how the system contributes to human life ANOTHER OPTION – use the AIMS From Head to Toe and provide each group with an AIMS activity that they are responsible to do with the class (associated with their system) – or could at least give the rubber‐ band books for each system after the presentation.
