COMMON FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT PLANNING TEMPLATE --FIRST DRAFT-Grade Level or Course: 8TH GRADE SCIENCE Authors: Assessment Topic: BIOLOGY – DIGESTIVE SYSTEM Selected Power Standards: List standards by number and include the full text here. Then “unwrap” to identify what students need to know and be able to do. Underline the concepts (important nouns or noun phrases) and circle the skills (verbs). C16 Cont.: Describe the structures of the human digestive system and how it functions to bring oxygen and nutrients to the cells and expel waste materials. CINQ10: Communicate about science in different formats, using relevant science vocabulary, supporting evidence and clear logic. GLE’s 1. Label the major parts of the human digestive system and explain in writing the function of each part in the chemical and physical breakdown of food (mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine and rectum. Graphic Organizer of “Unwrapped” Concepts and Skills Concepts: Need to Know about Digestion.

Refer to Bloom’s Taxonomy resource in supporting documents.) Describe (1) Communicate (3/4) Big Ideas from “Unwrapped” Standards 1. The digestive system is a group of organs that work together to digest food so that the nutrients from food can be used by the body. 2. There are two types of digestion: mechanical (physical) which is the breaking and mashing of food and chemical which breaks large food molecules into simpler ones. 3. Feces and other human wastes contain microorganisms and other substances that can contaminate drinking water. Essential Questions Matched to Big Ideas 1. What are the different parts of the digestive system and why is each part important? 2. What is the difference between mechanical and chemical digestion? 3. How would the inability to make saliva affect digestion? 4. Why are wastewater treatment plants necessary? © 2007 by Center for Performance Assessment All rights reserved. Copy only with permission.
