HUMAN SYSTEMS 2013
4 weeks
Living World Achievement objectives:
Life processes:
 Identify the key structural features and functions involved in the life processes of plants and animals.
 Describe the organisation of life at cellular level.
Focussing questions:
 How do our skeleton and muscles work together to help us move?
 How does our cardiovascular system support this movement?
 What do our cells need to give us the energy to move?
 Where does this energy come from and how is our food processed in our body?
 How are wastes removed from our body?
Key competencies focus:
All key competencies are incorporated into this unit of work, however, in this unit there is particular emphasis on:
 Relating to others.
Assessment Focus:
 Investigating in science: Pulse rate (formative).
 Written test
Literacy Focus:
Key words/terms: antagonistic pair, tendon, ligament, aorta, vena cava, pulmonary, valve, trachea, bronchi, alveoli, respiration, inhalation, exhalation,
haemoglobin, capillary, enzyme, urea, oesophagus, duodenum, ingestion, egestion.

Learning Experiences
1. MRS GREN(F)
 Pre-test
 Famous scientists: Harvey and Beaumont
 Revise MRS GREN
 Draw a human body and label as many parts as possible (this is
just a diagnostic exercise to see how much they know) e.g
various bones, muscle groups, organs etc.
2. MOVEMENT(skeleton)
 To find food, mates, and escape predators
 Muscles: contraction, muscle fibres, antagonistic pairs, names of
important muscles
 Skeleton: function, names of bones, numerous construction
activities
3. MOVEMENT(muscles and joints)
 Read sections on tendons, ligaments, joints (hinge, ball and
socket) then complete grid task.
 Practical: Demonstrate how to dissect a chicken leg to identify
muscle groups, pairs, tendons and ligaments. Students then
dissect their own.
4. BONE, JOINT & MUSCLE PROBLEMS
 Research osteo and rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis, cramps ect
5. BREATHING & RESPIRATION
 Respiration to make muscles move & breathing to exchange
gases.
 Lungs: structures and function
 Practical: Lung capacity
 Alveoli, bronchial tubes, trachea
 Role of diaphragm and rib muscles in inhalation and exhalation.
 Define ‘gas exchange’ as swapping CO2 for O2.
 Explain that CO2 (& H2O) comes from cells burning glucose.
6. TRANSPORT & CIRCULATION 1
Heart
 For transporting O2, CO2, glucose, hormones & wastes to the right
place around the body.
 Heart: structure and function.


Circulation: arteries and veins (names of important ones),
capillaries, direction of blood flow, problems.
7. TRANSPORT & CIRCULATION 2
Blood and transport
 Components of blood – RBC’s, WBC’s, plasma.
 Literacy exercise: Using key words, write a ‘story’ describing the
journey of a red blood cell around the body from when it first
enters the heart until it returns again.
 The movement of blood around the body sequencing activity.
8. PULSE RATE

Pulse rate assessment
9. NUTRITION (ingestion)

For providing cells with nutrients for all body functions

Digestive system structure and function

Part 1: Processing food (ingestion).

Teeth, chewing and swallowing.

Compare herbivore, carnivore and omnivore jaws and teeth.

Be able to identify incisors, canines, premolars, molars.
10. THE ROLE OF SALIVA
 Practical: The effect of amylase in saliva on starch.
11. NUTRITION (digestion)

Part 2: Digesting food.

Make (another) cut and paste from digestive system diagram;
match labels to locations.

Demonstration: A small mammal dissection can be a useful
practical activity here to reinforce.
