Animal System Lesson Plan for the Week of 4/20/15-4/24/15

Monday (4/20)
Debrief Circulatory
Relay/ PBL Presentation
Objectiv
es

SWBAT:
The circulatory
transports white
blood cells to
the site of
infection or
injury.
The respiratory
system interacts
with the
circulatory
system to
facilitate
exchange of
carbon dioxide
and oxygen.
The digestive
system interacts
with the
circulatory
system to
absorb nutrients.

Tuesday (4/21)
PBL Presentation/Lines
of Defense (Immune
system)
SWBAT:
Blocking viral
entry into the
host cell is the
most efficient
mechanism to
prevent viral
infection.
HIV binds to and
infects T helper
cells.
White blood cells
are responsible
for the
destruction of
pathogens.
Blocking viral
entry into the
host cell is the
most efficient
mechanism to
prevent viral
infection.
The
integumentary
system and the
skeletal system
function as the
first line of
defense against
injury or illness.
The immune
system interacts
with the
circulatory and

Wednesday (4/22)
Enzymes/Digestive
System
SWBAT:
The role of
enzymes in
nutrient
absorption is to
act as a catalyst
to reduce the
activation
energy required
which can speed
up the chemical
reaction
(digestion).
Enzymes are
specific for their
substrate (lock
and key).
The function of
an enzyme
depends on its
shape.
Denaturation
caused by
changes in
temperature can
affect the shape
of an enzyme.
Enzymes only
function within a
specific pH
range.
The location and
pH of enzymes
involved in
digestion.

skeletal system
as the second
and third line of
defense against
injury or illness.
Bacteria cause
disease by
competing for
resources or by
releasing toxins
that damage the
host.
Bacterial
infections are
treated with
antibiotics.
Vaccines are
used to prevent
both viral and
bacterial
infections.
ENGAGE:
Show students the
burning video.
Ask students
What would
happen if you
didnt have skin?
What is the
purpose of skin?

(Amylasemouth:pH 7.0;
Pepsin-stomach:
pH 2.0; and
Trypsin-small
intestine: pH
8.0).

ENGAGE:
Ask students You
ate a burger during
lunch, how come
you didnt poop out
a burger when you
go to the
restroom?
EXPLORE:
Show them a
demo of spaghetti
with soap and
other solutions
