Health+and+Science+Flying+Start

//** Health and Science... **// ** . **

There are many occasions when different subjects overlap. Body-systems and Cells is one such occasion. In this short flying start unit you will learn about the components that make up the body and how they are organised into different body systems, each with its own function and purpose
 * Introduction **


 * Aims **
 * 1) To gain a better understanding of the relationships between Health and Science.
 * 2) To understand the components at different levels that make up an organism.
 * 3) To have knowledge of the function of different body systems.

__Learning Intention:__ T o describe the levels of organisation of the different components of the body and to understand the relationship between cells and body systems. __ Success Criteria: __ Use the C __ ells and Body Systems powerpoint __ to help you complete your worksheet ! __ The Worksheet __
 * Learning Opportunities **
 * Lesson 1 **
 * I described levels of organisation by completing my worksheet
 * I know that body systems are made up of cells

__ Learning Intention: __ To identify and describe the different body systems __ Success Criteria: __ Body Systems Powerpoint
 * Lesson 2 **
 * I contributed to my team in a constructive and respectful way
 * I described the function of each body system

__ Learning Intention: __ To identify and label the parts and the functions of a microscope __ Success Criteria: __ I can describe and identify the different parts of a microscope
 * Lesson 3 **

Microscope Power point...

__ Learning Intention: __ To be able to focus a microscope at different magnifications __ Success Criteria: __ I’ve focussed a microscope at different magnifications and recorded my observations.
 * Lesson 4 **

__ Learning Intention: __ __ Success Criteria: __
 * Lesson 5 **
 * To describe the function of the skeletal system
 * To learn the components of the skeletal system
 * I worked in a small group to label parts of the human skeletal system
 * I completed the worksheet to describe the function of the skeletal system

__ To complete the human skeleton worksheet go to: __ Science IWB program (Class area-Shared work areas-Subject Reference 2011-Science Year 7 –Science IWB program –Select blue f –go to The Human Skeleton)

__ Learning Intention: __ To identify the components of the skeleton __ Success Criteria: I __ can identify the components of the skeleton
 * Lesson 6 **

__ To label parts of the human skeleton worksheet go to: __ Science IWB program (Class area-Shared work areas-Subject Reference 2011-Science Year 7 –Science IWB program –Select blue f –go to The Human Skeleton)

__ Learning Intention: __ To learn about the components of the cell
 * Lesson 7 **

__ Success Criteria: __ I can identify and briefly describe the cell components The Cell Factory

__YOUR TASK:__ Check out the websites below, use them to create a labeled cell diagram. You must include a brief description of each component of the cell. You must include the following in your diagram: Nucleus, Membrane, Mitochondrion, Golgi body, Smooth ER, Rough ER, Ribosomes, Cytoplasm and Vacuole.

__Cells Extension__ __TASK:__ Investigate the differences and similarities between plant and animal cells, record these in a Venn Diagram. Think of a way to teach the class this in 5 minutes, can you use any visual aides?

__ Learning Intention: __ To use a microscope to observe plant and animal cells
 * Lesson 8 **

__ Success Criteria: __
 * I made a drawing of a cell and identified the nucleus and cell membrane.
