nucleic acids as
organic
compounds
based on the
elements present
in the
biomolecule.
Identify the main
functions of the
digestive system.
Distinguish

ENGAGE:
Ask students if
they could
explain the
differences
between physical
and chemical
changes in
reference to the
digestive
system?

ENGAGE:
Ask students
how do they
think their body
functions? Which
system do they
believe is
involved with
every action they
take, whether its
eating, running,
holding?

ENGAGE:
View the National

ENGAGE:
Quickly ask
students to name
a few body
systems they
learned in
yesterdays
classroom. Candy
time! (Popsicle
sticks + for each
correct answer,
candy reward)

Test over Organic

Compounds. This test
will specifically cover the
digestive system (how it
works with other systems
to maintain equilibrium in
humans). It will also
cover carbon as the
backbone of all organic
compounds. And lastly,

game Kahoot
(Goes over
questions
regarding
Biomolecules,
digestive system
and
physical/chemica

changes/digestio
n.
EXPLAIN:
Students will be
responsible for
explaining their
answers to each
question for the
review.
ELABORATE:
I will have the
students create a
digestion
foldable and fill it
out with what
they have
learned this unit.
We will go over it
together to make
sure they match
up to what they
learned.
EVALUATE/ASSESS:

biomolecules, which are

organic compounds that
can be broken down into
smaller parts.

Wednesday

Thursday

Friday

EXPLORE:
Functioning body
activity
EXPLAIN:
Students have a
discussion with
their group
members on
their findings.
ELABORATE:
Students from
each group will
be asked to
explain their
findings and
explain which
system they
believe to be
involved with the
given activity?
Other students
will
agree/disagree.

EXPLORE:
Have students
create group
concept maps from
what they
learned/discovered
from the video.
EXPLAIN:
Students will post
their work on the
walls around the
classroom and each
group will discuss
which concept map
they used and what
their connections.
ELABORATE:
Question/Answer
period. As the group
members complete
their presentations,
other students
ask/comment on the
content of the
concept map.

EXPLORE:
Body Systems
Web quest
research project
handout.
EXPLAIN:
Stop students and
ask them what
they have learned
so far.
ELABORATE:
Ask students to
name a function of
each body system
that they have
found thus far
(popsicle stick
method).
