43. How to make organ system paper dolls
Cut out the paper dolls (male or female) as shown
Tape together so you have a string of 12
On first person, write your name, class period, and “Organ Systems of the Human Body” on one side. On the other side, write the word homeostasis and its definition.
Each of the remaining 11 people will represent one body system. On one side, draw the body system. Use the drawings in the book on page to help you. On the other side, write the name, structures, and function of the system (also on page ). Use your iPad to look up organs if you are having trouble.
These must be turned in by the end of the class period. Take your time and make them look good!
Read over the full instructions one more time before you start cutting
