Human Organ System Group Project


Science expectations:
o use appropriate science and technology vocabulary, including circulation,

respiration, digestion, organs , and nutrients, in oral and written communication


o use a variety of forms (e.g., oral, written, graphic, multimedia) to communicate with
different audiences and for a variety of purposes (e.g., create labeled charts or
graphs to show changes in heart rate and breathing as a result of exercising)
o identify major systems in the human body and describe their roles and
interrelationships
o describe the basic structure and function of major organs
In the classroom we have learned about various human organ systems, and have studied
the digestive system in detail. Now its your opportunity to become an expert on another
system, and then teach what youve learned to the class.
You will be in one of the following groups:

circulatory system
respiratory system
nervous system

skeletal system
muscular system

Its your job to research one of the bodys organ systems and to present your
information to the class in an interesting way. You are allowed to work in small
groups (3 or 4 people) and you will be given a weeks worth of Science classes to
work on this project.

You will be allowed to get information for your project from a variety of sources:

classroom textbooks (e.g., The Human Body textbook, the Nelson readers)
library books
the internet (Our class website, ELL Reference Center, Knowledge Ontario, etc)
pictures and posters

Once you have all of the information you need, you and your partners can start
preparing a presentation for the class. All groups are required to make a digital

Prezi presentation, and will be provided logins and passwords for each group (so
that each member has access to the same Prezi and can work from home).
You are the teachers and we are the students so please put a lot of effort into
this. Try to make your presentation creative, interesting and informative. Look for
ways to make your presentation stand out, and if you need anything, just ask!

Your project and presentation will be marked with the following rubric:
