Synopsis

Cette collection de plus de 200 activités testées en classe et de feuilles de travail reproductibles pour les élèves de la 7e à la 12e année couvre des concepts vitaux en biologie humaine et en santé, y compris une couverture étendue du sida. Ces leçons et feuilles de travail très intéressantes incitent les étudiants à s'impliquer activement dans l'apprentissage, même les étudiants mal motivés, ayant des difficultés d'apprentissage ou qui manquent de maîtrise de l'anglais. Les leçons sont écrites afin que vous puissiez facilement s'adapter aux différents styles d'apprentissage de vos élèves, qu'ils soient visuels, auditifs et tactiles. Chaque leçon aide les élèves à établir des liens entre de nouveaux matériaux et des concepts qu'ils connaissent déjà. Le livre comprend 11 unités, couvrant tous les systèmes du corps, tels que les systèmes circulatoire, digestif et immunitaire, et offre un aperçu détaillé des cellules, des os, des muscles, et plus encore. Chaque unité offre des activités pratiques agréables qui engagent les élèves du secondaire, de la construction d'un modèle cellulaire et du test des aliments pour les glucides à la dissection d'une grenouille et à la réalisation d'un dessin animé d'action d'un macrophage luttant contre un micro-organisme. Pour plus de commodité, les leçons sont imprimées dans un grand format à spirales qui se replie à plat pour la photocopie.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

This remarkable resource places in your hand over 200 stimulating, classroom–tested lessons and reproducible worksheets to help you teach vital concepts in human biology and health to student on a broad range of ability levels in grades 7–12.

These high–interest lessons and worksheets get students actively involves in learning even students who are poorly motivated, learning disabled, or who lack English proficiency. Moreover, they easily accommodate different learning styles and offer questions on three cognitive levels, making it easy to tailor each lesson to individual needs.

For your teaching convenience, the lessons are organized into 11 units that can stand alone or supplement any text. The units, along with a sample lessons from each, include:

1. THE MICROSCOPE "Making a Compound Microscope"
2. THE CELL "The Anatomy of a Cell"
3. THE SKELETON "Does Calcium Really Make Bones Strong?"
4. MUSCLES "The Muscles of the Human Body"
5. THE NERVOUS SYSTEM "Specialized Areas of the Brain"
6. THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM "Investigating a Drop of Blood"
7. THE IMMUNE SYSTEM "How Chemicals Can Stimulate a Cell"
8. THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM "Testing for Carbon Dioxide During Exhalation"
9. THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM "Simulating the Steps of Digestion"
10. THE EXCRETORY SYSTEM "Internal Anatomy of the Kidney"
11. REPRODUCTION "Making a Plaster Model of the Human Embryo"

Each unit provides enjoyable, effective, hands–on activities that engage students for example, in making a cell model in Unit 2, investigating the nerve receptors in their skin in unit 5, or making an "action cartoon" of a macrophage engulfing an invading microorganism in Unit 7.

And the important health issue AIDS gets detailed coverage in a series of lessons on the immune system, how the HIV virus works, and how AIDS can and cannot be spread.

Best of all, you′ll find that each unit is complete and ready for use, including step–by–step teacher instructions, reproducible student worksheets, and full answer keys. It will help you save hours of preparation and planning time while teaching important skills and concepts to some of your most challenging students!

Présentation de l'éditeur

This collection of over 200 classroom–tested activities and reproducible worksheets for students in grades 7 through 12 covers vital concepts in human biology and health, including extensive coverage of AIDS. These high–interest lessons and worksheets get students actively involved in learning–even students who are poorly motivated, learning disabled, or who lack English proficiency. The lessons are written so you can easily accommodate your students′ various learning styles whether it′s visual, auditory, and tactile. Each lesson helps students make connections between new material and concepts they′re already familiar with. The book features 11 units, covering all the body′s systems–such as circulatory, digestive, and immune systems, and offers a detailed look at cells, bones, muscles, and more. Each unit provides enjoyable, hands–on activities that engage secondary students–from building a cell model and testing foods for carbohydrates to dissecting a frog and making an action cartoon of a macrophage battling a microorganism. For convenience, the lessons are printed in a big, spiral–bound format that folds flat for photocopying.
