Muscular System Sub Unit


This is what my lesson plan looked like for the muscular system, a sub section from our unit on the body. I know that some things may not make sense, but wanted you to be able to see what I was doing. The students were required to watch the video that I created at  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7Ir1kiH2uk
I gave them an "assignment" in this video, plus they had to answer a question on the test from the video. Other than copying and pasting the assignments, I don't have any way to link them to you. All of my assignments and resources are uploaded to Edline for student use. If anyone wants anything that I do, I will be happy to email the lessons, assignments, resources to you.

Instructional Sequence
*****Period 5 only is working on #4. After the blinking lab, they will finish up their previous assignments. We will start grading the skeletal system stations.

Students will be placed into 4 groups based on their directional inventory done at the beginning of year. Each group will rotate stations every day
1.       Notes on the muscular system. Note taking guides are in the file folder. Students are to write on these and staple them into their journals.
Muscle Mania Lab: Students will need a bowl of warm water and a bowl of ice water and towels. Instructions are in file folder and on flash drive.
Grade the groups quickwrites, Microscope Bone drawing, Skeleton Sheets, and Lab.
2.       Work on the Sec 2 Muscular System Sheet and Muscular system reinforcement worksheet. Both sheets are in the file folder. Answers go in the students’ journals.
3.       Students need to choose a topic and begin working on their RAFT. The options and rubric for the RAFT are in the file folder and on flash drive. This needs to be written in their journals.
4.       Blinking Lab. Students in this group will need to pair up. Instructions are in the file folder. Give each pair one set of instructions. They need to make a chart and answer the questions in their journals. Next they will do the online muscle activities. Use one computer per pair. The list of activities are in the file folder and on flash drive.
When students are finished with their day’s work, they must first look at the muscles in the microscope (by printer) and draw what they see in their journals. Next, they can work on one of the “dessert” options on the board: Science world, Skeleton Games online, Muscle Activities online, Muscular Wordsearch
