Human Body System Layered Book

Human Body System Layered Book Individual project (65 points – test grade) Objective: To create a book of the human body with all of the major systems represented.

For the next 8 weeks will be learning about the Human Body Systems. On the completion of this section you will be turning in a flipbook that covers 8 human body systems. These include: Nervous System, Skeletal System, Integumentary System, Digestive System, Respiratory System, Circulatory System, Excretory System, and Immune System. The Reproductive System can be added for Extra Credit (design your own page and include items you find relevant).

You will be allowed to use this book on your human body test at the end of the unit. We will not have any notes during this unit. You will be making your own notes within this book.

On each page of your book you will need to include: 1. The function of the system 2. The main parts of the system and their role (define key terms) 3. A picture (hand drawn) with labels 4. Explain common problems associated with each system.

Your flipbook also needs a cover with your name and period (worth 1 point). Your pages can be “flipbook” style or you can use tabs to designate pages. Since this is a book, you must have a style followed throughout. It MUST be legible and neat!

Grading Rubric: Each page will receive 8 points.
