Project 2 Lesson Plan Topic: Systems are Composed of Subsystems Grade Level: 6 Overview: The primary goal of this lesson is to teach the sixth grade students that systems, like the human body, are made up of subsystems. Students will learn the names and functions of the individual body systems and give two examples of other subsystems found in the world. Learning Objectives: Given a chart with the human body systems, students will be able to name four of the human body subsystems with 90% accuracy. After discussing the definition of a subsystem, students will be able to list and describe two other examples of items that have subsystems. Teaching Standards: Sixth Grade Science 6.7 Standard: Describe that a system, such as the human body, is composed of subsystems. 1 Required Materials Chart with the human body systems Markers Blank paper for graphic organizer Pencils Procedures: 1. The teacher will explain to the students the definition of a subsystem and that our human body is a great example. 2. The teacher will distribute the Human Body Chart that outlines the subsystems of the body. 3. The students will review the names of the eleven body subsystems. 1 http://doe.in.gov/achievement/standards/indiana-standard-resources 1 Project 2 Lesson Plan Subsystems of the Body2 Skeletal System Respiratory System Circulatory System bones protects our vital organs gives the body shape allows us to move deals with breathing how the oxygen and nutrients reach the body's cells, carries away waste materials breakdown of food nose, trachea, lungs heart, blood, blood vessels Digestive System Muscular System Nervous System pumps blood through the body moves the body controls everything we do Excretory System deals with body wastes Urinary System Endocrine System Reproductive System Immune System how the wastes escape the body controls release of hormones allows the body to produce offspring fights off disease-causing bacteria stomach, esophagus, intestines muscles brain, spinal cord, nerves lungs, large intestine, kidneys bladder and kidneys glands male and female reproductive organs cells, organs, tissues 4. The teacher will explain how each system helps the other system which causes the body to function properly. 5. The teacher will then make a graphic organizer on the board with the subsystems to show that all of the systems are connected.

The teacher will ask the students to think of two other examples of subsystems found in items today. One example of an item with a subsystem is an automobile. The two subsystems would be the brake system and the fuel system. A second example of an item with a subsystem is an ATM machine at the bank. The machine has a system to scan your card, deposit/ withdraw money, and communicate with the computers at the bank. Assessment: To assess the students’ understanding of subsystems, the teacher will ask the students to create their own graphic organizer for the two systems he/she listed and described. At the bottom of the graphic organizer, the student is to list four names of the human body systems reviewed in class. 3 Project 2 Lesson Plan References and Reference Materials: Indiana Standard Resources.
