By studying and discussing these posters, everybody in the class will ultimately learn about each body system. Each ith each other. Directions Part I: Learning about body systems 1. Research your assigned body system to create a poster on butcher paper that has the following items: a. A color diagram of the body system with major organs, tissues and/or parts labeled correctly.

Also write down any questions you have. Remaining questions will be discussed as a class. Part II: Interaction of body systems 1. Now it is time for you to brainstorm how each of the body systems you have learned about interact with each other. 2. 3. With this other group, brainstorm how your specific body systems might interact with each other. 4. When your teacher instructs you, pick a spokesperson to share what your groups have brainstormed with the class. 5. Steps 2-4 will be repeated until you have interacted with all body systems.
