A.3.+Differentiated+Curriculum+Unit

The concept-based curriculum unit that I developed is entitled "A Body Built for Balanced Living." We took the concept of __systems__ and studied it through the topic of the Human Body. **__Curriculum Unit __** **__Pre-Assessment __** **__Student Research __** The students completed research many different times during our study of the human body. They used resources such as the internet, books, encyclopedias, magazines, pamphlets, videos, interviews with practicing professionals, and many other resources to gather information for various projects and presentations throughout the unit. **__Integration of Technology __** We created Podcasts. media type="file" key="Podcast.mp3" We completed a WebQuest.  ﻿ We used PowerPoint Presentations. We used video clips.

And we used the internet for research! **__Post-Assessment __** The students created a Podcast on one of the human body systems that could be used to teach a class of children all about that system in less than ten minutes. They gave the different parts of the system, how they worked together, the function of that system, and how it interacts with other body systems. media type="file" key="Podcast.mp3" <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">The students were scored with a rubric for their product. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Home
