"I LOVE this resource! I use it each year without fail. The biggest thing I am thankful for is the ability to use it easily in the classroom as a normal task card activity. If we need to transfer to distance learning, I love that I am able to still use this resource very easily. "

Met expectations
Great value
Standards-aligned
This was a great resource and definitely worth the purchase! It was easy to implement and kept my students engaged throughout the activity. The directions were clear, and the content aligned well with what I was teaching. My students really enjoyed it and stayed on task, which is always a win. I will absolutely use this again in the future and would recommend it to other teachers looking for something effective and student-friendly.

Excellent "ready-to-use" resources. I combined the Google Slide materials with notes Slides, by inserting questions into the slides. It helped students to work asynchronously. Thank you.

Design a solution to a complex real-world problem by breaking it down into smaller, more manageable problems that can be solved through engineering.
NGSSHS-LS1-2
Develop and use a model to illustrate the hierarchical organization of interacting systems that provide specific functions within multicellular organisms. Emphasis is on functions at the organism system level such as nutrient uptake, water delivery, and organism movement in response to neural stimuli. An example of an interacting system could be an artery depending on the proper function of elastic tissue and smooth muscle to regulate and deliver the proper amount of blood within the circulatory system. Assessment does not include interactions and functions at the molecular or chemical reaction level.
