Th Soarin Eagl Th Soarin Eagl volum_14_issu_2 Our new reading program, Pearson ReadyGen, includes assignments which require students to read, research and synthesize information in a variety of ways. Students in Mrs. Kotwas’s 4th grade class wrote expository essays as part of their reading and writing curriculum. They had to choose three systems of the human body, research using specified sources, then write an essay. They followed up these essays with an infographic of one of the body systems they studied. George The Human Body System By:Nelly & Nathan The human body is amazing! The human body has many systems. All of them work together so the human body can function. The human body is similar to a computer because they both have connecting parts that allow them to complete their tasks. Three of these systems are skeletal system, respiratory system and muscular system. Muscular System The muscular system is a very common system.Your Nerve cells can carry to and from your brain. Muscular cells make parts of your body move. The muscular system is made for your body to move.The three muscles are is the skeletal muscles , smooth muscles , and the Heart muscles . These three parts help the muscular system do is they help the body attached to the bones. The skeletal muscle h as about 700 named muscles that come together to make half of a person's body weight.The muscular system is also known for helping the person breath, cough,and sneeze.Your muscular system is made for your body to function correctly.The muscles make your heart beat.They even make the pupils of your eyes become larger or smaller. Smooth muscle may be found in most of your organs.The Heart musicals make your heart beat and pump blood throughout your body and you can not controll your heart muscles.Last of all is the skeleton muscles for example you kick a ball then you pull all the bones to the lower leg. Respiratory System Meanwhile the respiratory system is a very important system t akes in oxygen from the air you breath and gets rid of the waste gases you breathe out.When that air that you breathe goes into your lungs. For you to be able to breathe you need oxygen in the lugs. When you breathe your breath pass into your little blood vessels.Also the carbon dioxide and water goes to your lungs.The three important things that help the respiratory system are lungs,bronchi,and last of all trachea.Now what is important about the bronchi the trachea breaks into cubes called bronchi each tube leads to each lung.All the air travels through the trachea and towards your lungs all the waste gases also travel through the tube.Also the oxygen you breathe and gets rid of the carbon dioxide and water vapor in your lungs.The windpipe is also a tube that travels air between the lungs and upper respiratory passages. From the world book it told me that the human trachea is 5 inches long and 13 centimeters long and less than one inch. Over all the respiratory system works very good because of the lungs,bronchi,and last of all trachea help the respiratory system be strong and safe. Skeletal System The skeletal system is the most protected system .The Skeletal system supports your body and gives you shape.It protects your internal organs for example your skull protects your brain.It makes red blood cells that carry oxygen and white blood cells that fight germs.All these joints help the skeleton protect the human body organs. There are four joints pivot joint ,gliding joint ,hinge joint and ball and socket joints.The pivot joint is found in the neck the gliding joint is found in the wrist and ankle the hinge joint is found in the knee and elbow last of all the ball and socket joint is found in the shoulder and hip.How these bones move are the pivot joints bones circle around each other the gliding joint slide over each other the hinge joint move back and forth the ball and socket joints move in circles.The three parts that help protect the organs are bones, joints, cartilage.In the cartilage is a rubbery tissue it is called gristle the tissue is found in the backbone it is found between the vertebrae of the spin. The cartilage is a firm framework the bone gradually replaces the cartilage as the skeleton grown for humans and animals. All these systems help the body function correctly. You need all your body parts for you to be safe and healthy.Like when your blood stops working you can have a problem.The blood goes all over your body so you can have your heart beat and so if your blood stops working then your muscles get slower and weaker. All your body parts need to be strong and safe so your body parts have to work together and if some of the body parts gets sick your whole body won't function the same way if it is strong and healthy.

Without these systems our body would not able to do anything. These systems actually help us move, push, pull, run, and many other activities.There are many systems that help us do everything. Some of these systems are: muscular system, skeletal system, and digestive system. Digestive system Take digestive system an example the digestive system is a part in our body. according to easy science for kids “The digestive system allow the body to break down food into vitamins, protein, carbohydrates ,minerals ,and fat then absorbs it. This system is important because if we didn't have a digestive system our body would be fat and even our stomach would hurt everyday . Muscular system Another system is the muscular system. According to easy science for kids “ The muscular system is made of tissues that work with skeletal system to control the human body.There are three types of muscles tissues in your body, they are: Skeletal, smooth and cardiac. The reason we have the muscular system is because it help us do everything like type, talk, run, move and everything else. Without the muscular system we wouldn’t be able to move in any way. Skeletal system There is also the skeletal system. The skeletal system consist of bones, tendons, cartilage and ligaments. It helps us to move, gives shape to the body and protects our organs. Without this system we would flab down to the ground. This system is basically our bones/skeleton. You wouldn’t be able to move without this system because this system supports your body so you don’t just fall down like a blob! According to sciencesaurus “Your body has two organ system that work together to help your body move. In conclusion, these systems are very important.These systems help us move and function properly.They give our body shape and size. To Function properly and move you need human system. No body would work without the systems of trh body. To conclude you need all the systems o f the body to move and function properly. Bibliography Ressources: 1. scienceSaurus: a student handbook 2.

Easyscienceforkids-http://easyscienceforkids.com/human-body-systems-fo r-kids-video/ Kuba The Human Body By: Emily and Josh The human body has multiple systems so it can work properly. If one system is broken, the human body has a huge problem. The systems have to work together. Each system has several parts. Every system has a special part to play in the human body. Three systems of the human body are the Nervous system, Reproductive, and the Digestive system. The Nervous system is made up of billions of special cells so it can work. These cells are called neurons. The book The Nervous System s tates that the brain controls all parts of the nervous system. The Nervous System also explained that the nervous system is all over the body which is called peripheral nervous system. What it does is, it carries nerves to the muscles through the body to help the body move. The brain is the biggest part of the human body so it is a big help to the nervous system. The female and the male have different Reproductive systems. This reproductive system is located in the hip area. There are 10 organs in the female reproductive system.The reproductive system makes the baby. One of them are the Vagina. The Vagina is located behind the bladder and the uterus. World Book claims that it is the way out for baby. There are 15 organs in the male’s reproductive system. One of them is the testicle. Testicle is behind a stack of scrotum. It helps the man go there puberty. What it does to the man is the it grows the beard, it gives the man muscle mass and it gives the man a deeper voice. The digestive system helps you digest your food. It is found in the stomach area. The book The Human body said that before the food can get to the stomach it goes through the esophagus. How the digestive system helps is that it breaks it into smaller parts before it reaches the stomach.

  • The Human Body Systems for Kids
    1 Maine Regional School Unit #67 Chester, Lincoln, Mattawamkeag The Human Body Systems for Kids KidsKonnect.com and kidshealth.org provide links to more detailed information about each of the systems listed below. The first group of systems are commonly taught in the elementary grades. Teachers wishing more detailed information should consult sources beyond this handout. There are many systems in the human body. • Skeletal System (bones) • Respiratory System (nose, trachea, lungs) • Circulatory System (heart, blood, vessels) • Digestive System (mouth, esophogus, stomach, intestines) • Muscular System (muscles) • Nervous System (brain, spinal cord, nerves) • Excretory System (lungs, large intestine, kidneys) • Urinary System (bladder, kidneys) • Endocrine System (glands) • Reproductive System (male and female reproductive organs) • Immune System (many types of protein, cells, organs, tissues) 2 The Skeletal System has three major jobs: • It protects our vital organs such as the brain, the heart, and the lungs. • It gives us the shape that we have. • It allows us to move. Because muscles are attached to bones, when muscles move, they move the bones and the body moves. http://kidshealth.org/kid/htbw/bones.html The Respiratory System is the system of the body that deals with breathing. When we breathe, the body takes in the oxygen that it needs and removes the carbon dioxide that it doesn't need. The organ most closely connected with this system is the lung. The human body has two lungs. http://kidshealth.org/kid/htbw/lungs.html 3 The Circulatory System is the system by which oxygen and nutrients reach the body's cells, and waste materials are carried away.

  • The Muscular System
    THE MUSCULAR SYSTEM COMPILED BY HOWIE BAUM 1 Muscles make up the bulk of the body and account for 1/3 of its weight.!! Blood vessels and nerves run to every muscle, helping control and regulate each muscle’s function. The muscular system creates body heat and also moves the: Bones of the Skeletal system Food through Digestive system Blood through the Circulatory system Fluids through the Excretory system MUSCLE TISSUE The body has 3 main types of muscle tissue 1) Skeletal, 2) Smooth, and 3) Cardiac SKELETAL MUSCLE SMOOTH MUSCLE CARDIAC MUSCLE Skeletal muscles attach to and move bones by contracting and relaxing in response to voluntary messages from the nervous system. Skeletal muscle tissue is composed of long cells called muscle fibers that have a striated appearance. Muscle fibers are organized into bundles supplied by blood vessels and innervated by motor neurons. Muscle structure Skeletal (striated or voluntary) muscle consists of densely packed groups of hugely elongated cells known as myofibers. These are grouped into bundles (fascicles). A typical myofiber is 2–3 centimeters ( 3/4–1 1/5 in) long and 0.05millimeters (1/500 inch) in diameter and is composed of narrower structures – myofibrils. These contain thick and thin myofilaments made up mainly of the proteins actin and myosin. Numerous capillaries keep the muscle supplied with the oxygen and glucose needed to fuel contraction. Skeletal Muscles • Skeletal muscles attach to bones by tendons (connective tissue) and enable movement. • Skeletal muscles are mostly voluntary Feel the back of your ankle to feel your Achilles tendon - the largest tendon in your body.

  • Science-5-Nov-16-20 Circulatory-System.Pdf
    Grade 5 Science Week of November 16 – November 20 Circulatory System Most of the cells inside of your body do not move. If a cell is hungry or needs to get rid of waste, it can’t simply move itself to the part of your body where it needs to go. Instead, your body must bring the food to your cells and take the waste away from them. By using billions of tiny tubes the circulatory system transports substances around our bodies. It delivers essential nutrients to every cell, and it transports waste products to waste-disposal sites—the lungs, the skin, and the kidneys. The circulatory system is an organ system that includes the heart, the blood vessels, and the blood itself. It has three functions: 1. to transport materials (i.e., nutrients and oxygen) and cells from one place to another 2. to defend the body against invasion by harmful organisms by taking white blood cells to an area of injury or infection 3. to maintain a constant body temperature Introduction Your body has a network of blood vessels—hollow tubes—that move blood and nutrients. A pumping organ—the heart—pushes blood through this network of vessels. Watch this video to start looking at this incredible system: https://youtu.be/tF9-jLZNM10 Complete the following. 1) Fill in the blanks: 1. Most of the cells inside of your body ________________ .

  • Skeletal System Fact Sheet
    Skeletal system fact sheet • At birth the human skeleton is made up of around 300 bones. By adulthood, some bones have fused together to end up with 206 bones. • Human bones grow continually from birth till our mid 20's. Our skeleton's bone mass is at its maximum density around the age of 30. • If broken our bones will re-grow and repair themselves. Often doctors will place a cast on splint to make sure these bones repair straight and true. • The axial skeleton part of the human skeleton has 80 bones. It includes the vertebral column, the rib cage and the skull and helps us maintain our upright posture, by spreading the weight in the head, and upper areas down to the lower areas near the hips. • The appendicular skeletal section of our skeleton has 126 bones. It includes the pectoral (shoulder) girdles, the pelvic girdle and the bones of the lower and upper limbs. Its function is for movement of the body and to protect some organs. • The human skeletal system has six major functions including the production of blood cells, for support, for movement, for protection, for storage of ions and endocrine regulation. • The longest bone in the human body is the thigh bone called the femur. • The smallest bone found in the human body is located in the middle ear. The staples (or stirrup) bone is only 2.8 millimetres (0.11 inches) long. • Like our skin, the human body's bones are also constantly worn down and re-made, to the point where every 7 years we essentially have a new bone.
