THURSDAY18 AUGUST 2011 Today’s Focus SCIENCE REVIEW
HOMEWORK STUDY FOR SCIENCE TEST. HOW? Use the diagram to label the structures. Say aloud and write the behavior of each structure. Fill in the chart. Write own test questions (levels, T/F, MC) Check out the blog created by ESL students in 2009.
REVIEW ACTIVITY #110 minutes PARTNER A • Make a list of the top 10 most important structures for the unit on the digestive system. • 2. With your partner, share your lists and agree on the top 10 structures. PARTNER B • Make a list of the top 10 most important structures for the unit on the digestive system. • 2. With your partner, share your lists and agree on the top 10 structures.
REVIEW ACTIVITY #1 pt 210 minutes All “As” join to form a group. All “Bs” join to form a group. Compare your lists and come to a consensus on the final top 10 most important structures. Compile a list from the consensus. Share your list by having a representative read it aloud to the class. Are the 2 lists the same? Do we have class consensus on the top 10 most important structures?
REVIEW ACTIVITY #3 PARTNER A PARTNER B has the definitions and labeled diagram (B) do not look at each other’s papers B reads the definitions to A. B may not say whether a label is correct or not (that’s why B may not look at A’s work) • has the diagram of the digestive system (A) • do not look at each other’s papers • A listens and uses context clues to label the digestive system. • A may ask clarifying questions.
Definitions • anus - the opening at the end of the digestive system from which feces exit the body.esophagus- the long tube between the mouth and the stomach. It uses rhythmic muscle movements (called peristalsis) to force food from the throat into the stomach.gall bladder - a small, sac-like organ located by the duodenum. It stores and releases bile (a digestive chemical which is produced in the liver) into the small intestine.large intestine - the long, wide tube that food goes through after it goes through the small intestine.liver - a large organ located above and in front of the stomach. It filters toxins from the blood, and makes bile (which breaks down fats) and some blood proteins.mouth - the first part of the digestive system, where food enters the body. Chewing and salivary enzymes in the mouth are the beginning of the digestive process (breaking down the food).rectum- the lower part of the large intestine, where feces are stored before they are excreted from the body.small intestine - the long, thin winding tube that food goes through after it leaves the stomach. It is called its name because of its small diameter.stomach - a sack-like, muscular organ that is attached to the esophagus. When food enters the stomach, it is churned in an acid bath.
What is a system? How do we know that the digestive system is a system?
