Write the News on Body Systems
Step 1. Questions
The circulatory system, nervous system, digestive system, endocrine system, and the other body systems each perform a specific function in your body. None of them would work well by themselves, however. Like any winning team, the body systems work together to achieve an important goal--keeping you alive and healthy.
For this E-Journal project, you will research and write about a body system and its function in the body as a whole. Here are some questions to investigate: - Choose a body system. What are its main parts? What is its function in the body?
- How does this body system work together with other body systems?
- What are some common diseases or injuries that can affect this body system?
- What can people do to keep this body system healthy?
First, visit the Web sites listed in Step 2 to research the answers to these questions. Take notes in the note-taking boxes. You may also visit other Web sites, or research body systems in encyclopedias and other books at the library.
Step 2. Research
Research answers for the questions you were asked in Step 1. Visit these Web sites. Take notes about them on this page, too!
