New Science Project 12/14

No homework today.

Here is a preview of the new science project which you will be starting tomorrow, and which will be done in class during the next week of time. 

Body Diagram Instructions:
1. Trace the outline of a body onto the large sheet of paper.

2. Working as a group, add the following systems to your "body", using a pencil:
- nervous system
- circulatory system
- respiratory system
- digestive system

- skeletal system (2 points each)

3. Color each system a different color.

4. Describe the function of each system on the paper around the outside of the "body", using point-form.
- nervous system
- circulatory system
- respiratory system
- digestive system
- skeletal system
- muscles (2 points each)

+ 2 points for overall neatness and effort
+ 4 individual points for effort and conduct
Total - Out of 28 points
