Visual or Demonstration– Each student group must present a visual/demonstration related to their organ system. This visual/demonstration is in addition to their digital presentation. Teacher models may be used if reserved in advance. Students may also bring materials from home and construct their own models in class.
Lab Activity – Student groups will design, plan, and lead the class in an activity or lab related to their organ system. Students may use labs from the student textbook, teacher resources, or may design an activity of their own. Students are responsible for supplying all materials and photocopies for the lab and class participants.
