These subsystems are groups of cells that work together to form tissues and organs that are specialized for particular body functions. (MS-LS1-3)

Structure and Function:
Complex and microscopic structures and systems can be visualized, modeled, and used to describe how their function depends on the relationships among its parts.

This assignment will give students something they love the most, choice!! They can chose to explain and model the major functions of the cell in any way they see fit. Students will be given criteria, but are encouraged to be as creative as possible. A movie, poem, computer model, story! The possibilities are endless....just like the number of cells in your body!

Connects to the Learning Objective I,, III, and IV.
Also highlights CCC's of Structure and Function as well as Systems and Models. ]]> 2020-07-13 00:31:35 UTC https://padlet.com/vwilliams181/xuzdtpneopw2lwry/wish/652828040 Data Collection vwilliams181 https://padlet.com/vwilliams181/xuzdtpneopw2lwry/wish/652830837 Students will record and analyze data.]]> 2020-07-13 00:37:36 UTC https://padlet.com/vwilliams181/xuzdtpneopw2lwry/wish/652830837 Assessment vwilliams181 https://padlet.com/vwilliams181/xuzdtpneopw2lwry/wish/652833343 Medical Mystery Investigation

This is an assignment that will span the course of the unit. Students will be investigating the medical issue of M'Kenna who is a middle school student just like them. This assignment has many components that include keeping a notebook log of the clues and data, writing assignments, focus questions, and a list of questions students want to know about why M'Kenna's body is failing her. The main portion of the assignment is the detailed summary of how M'Kenna could be treated (how could the body heal itself?).

Students will work on collaboration, critical thinking, and generating good questions.

Connects to Learning Objectives II, III, and IV.
This assessment highlights all the the CCC's listed above as well as Cause and Effect.

Covers the Science and Engineering Practice of Planning and Carrying out an Investigation as well as Engaging in Argument from Evidence. ]]> 2020-07-13 00:42:49 UTC https://padlet.com/vwilliams181/xuzdtpneopw2lwry/wish/652833343 https://padlet.com/vwilliams181/xuzdtpneopw2lwry/wish/714242881 2020-09-02 07:39:01 UTC https://padlet.com/vwilliams181/xuzdtpneopw2lwry/wish/714242881
