Standard 4

7Sc.1: Summarize the levels of structural organization within the human body (including cells, tissues, organs, and systems).

   Lesson on how Cells build into Systems for Humans

Title-Game –Build up your Cell

GROUP ACTIVITY

1) The students will be given a card with either a specific cell, piece of tissue, organ, or system on it with the definition on the back.
2) The students will be given 10 minutes to find their “system” where they belong! - A bone cell card finds the cartilage/bone tissue card which finds the bone organ/femur card which finds the skeletal system! 
3) At the end, one of the students present the activity and why they all go together – demonstrating that cells build into tissue that builds into organs which builds into systems



CLASS DEMONSTRATION

1) The teacher will do the red blood cell card and demonstrate how she finds the Blood card and then they find the Artery or Vein card- either then joining the Cardiovascular System (pumps blood) or the Skeletal System, which has veins and arteries in it which carry blood which has blood cells in it.


Question 1
    Give 4 examples of human body: cells, tissues, organs, and systems
-cells- bone cell, red blood cell, nerve cell, muscle cell
-tissue-bone tissue, blood, brain tissue, hamstring muscle tissue
-organs- femur bone, arteries/veins, brain, Diaphragm
-System- skeletal system, circulatory system, Nervous System, Muscular/Respiratory System
Question     
2 Create your own new cell and explain what system it would go in and why?
-I created a nerve blood cell- it sends messages on the outside but also pumps blood on inside tube, helping the blood to flow and taking some of the pressure of the heart!
