Body Systems - Bell Ringers, Class Warm-Ups, and Exit Tickets
Science, Life Sciences, Human Body, Grade 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities
This Body System unit comes with 20 days’ worth of materials that relate directly to The Digestive System, Circulatory System, and Respiratory System. This activity bundle is geared towards a grade 8-11 Biology class. They can be used at the start of a class in the form of a bell ringer/class warm-up or at the end of class as an exit ticket. Would you like to see me walk through my Bell Ringer activity ? I created a video that overviews how they work and how you can use them effectively in your classroom in only 5 minutes per day. Click here to have a look. This resource covers the following topics • Digestive System Structure and Function • Circulatory System Structure and Function • Blood vessels, blood, heart • Respiratory System These are meant to be used each day, however, the question periods are directly associated with topic lessons, so they are done on days that follow the completion of a lesson. For example, after you finish your lesson, you’d give your students the questions associated with the ecosystems lesson. Additional days will utilize the Quotes and Videos sections. There are two key reasons why this daily activity works: 1) It encourages your students to review their notes on a nightly basis so they’re ready for class. 2) It creates a routine in your classroom that encourages your student to arrive and get settled for class quickly and quietly. Once we’re done, the students are ready for class and have already gotten their brains working and thinking science. The Activities 1) Questions: Question types - Fill in the blanks - Short answer - Opinion - Drawing - Mix of above ● Everything will be included in your PowerPoint ● All questions relate directly to the previous lesson and work to test your students’ understanding ● If students are absent, they know they need to get caught up while away ● This process encourages students to keep up with the material and review their notes nightly 2) Quotes The quotes come from individuals and relate directly to the overarching topic. On these days, I have students read the quote and write down what they feel it means and/or the underlying message. 3) Videos The videos are an excellent way to settle your class down quickly and easily. Each video is selected specifically because it’s interesting and relevant to students. Each video can be accessed directly from the slide. Simply click the video image while in slideshow mode and the video will automatically open in your browser. Process ● Each week, I hand out the week’s [Topic Name] - Student Worksheet ○ You can make this activity completely digital by making the sheet available online and have them submit it there as well ● As soon as the bell rings to start class, I hand the sheets out to my students. Once the sheets are out, I start the 4-minute timer. If students are late, they miss out on their time. �� Once the timer finishes, the students flip over their papers and pass them to the front. Structure Each day’s activities, unless otherwise stated, are to be done individually and without notes. However, depending on the ability level of your students, you may want to have them work in pairs and/or use their notes. Marking We all have enough marking already and the last thing we want to do is add to our pile. However, I’ve found that this process is so streamlined and efficient that I’m easily able to mark these while my students are working in class or copying down notes. Typically, I mark only the Questions section. However, if I’m busy or don’t have time in class, I won’t and that’s OK. The point of this isn’t to make your job harder but to help your students stay on track and keep focused. Additionally, I’ll mark one of the other sections (Quote or Video) at least every other week. Each day’s mark is out of 5 but since there aren’t always 5 questions (usually it’s somewhere between 1-3), I base my mark on their understanding of what I’ve asked them to complete. This can come across as subjective, but I’ve found it gives me an excellent indication of their knowledge and keeping it consistent makes things better for everyone. Keep in mind that the outline above describes how I use them in my class. Feel free to change it up however you like (including the questions as the entire thing is completely editable). Other teachers I’ve spoken to only utilize the questions following a lesson or only mark the questions following a lesson and for the other days, show the relevant videos but don’t require their students to submit anything. A few people only mark one submission per week while others mark everything. It’s completely up to you. Whether you use Questions, Quotes, or Videos in any given lesson, your goal is to create a routine, promote understanding, and get your students thinking about science as soon as they enter your class. ***************************** For free resources, useful teaching tips, and tools, please visit my blog - TeachScienceWithFergy.com If you have any questions please feel free to send me an email - devon@teachwithfergy.com

This Guided Reading Book - All About Deserts (Level N) with lesson plan includes: Guided Reading Color Label (front cover x1) This is a quick way to match the book’s demands to what students can generally handle.. The overall goal is to use the level/color to pick books for several smaller groups. To qualify for a certain level, a student is expected to read a book from that level with about 90–94% accuracy. If a student is consistently accurate and understands, move up a level. If the student is struggling at that level, drop down and add more support. Each student will improve at completely different rates, but it is generally one of the best ways to check progress across the class. DOWNLOAD THE CATALOG TO VIEW ALL GUIDED READING BOOKS AVAILABLE (SORTED LEVELS A-Z) Pre-Reading Question (x1) Teacher asks the prompt aloud, can be while showing the cover or first page. Students share what they already know, or make educated guesses from the cover. Prompt them to use the target vocabulary. Write some of their responses on the board to look back at during the reading. Vocabulary Words (x5) Introduce the five words, best doing it one at a time. Start by saying it, while students repeat and then see if anyone knows what it means before reading further. Read through the meaning and try to briefly connect each word to a picture or gesture so it’s meaningful. Ask students to flip through the book pages and point to where they see each of the vocabulary words. While reading the book pause upon coming across one of the vocab words or read the sentence twice to make sure students understand the word has appeared. Optional: Ask students to raise hands whenever they see/hear one of the new words. Guided Reading Pages (x10) Check the book snapshot (below) for: primary topic - do you need to prep extra reading or intro materials on this? what is taught best - decide on 1-2 bullets to focus on, use the prompt or words provided here for best results. learning goals - what you are checking for students to be able to do after the session, elicit answers using prompts or words provided. key vocabulary (see section above). questions overview - so you know what is coming up and if you need to prep extra materials to assist understanding. Run the lesson You may have already looked at a few of the pages together, but you can show them some of the pictures again first to set meaning. Depending on how much time you have and how familiar your students are with guided reading class, you may want to read the book aloud first with the group first. Students whisper or partner read, while you listen in. If time, do it as a group, one student reading a page each. Use the guided page’s prompts to coach: “Check the picture / does it make sense?” “Point under the words / try the first sound” “Reread the sentence smoothly”. Try to focus more on one student per session (rotating every time), so you can work out if they are ready to move up or need to move down a level. Comprehension Questions (back cover x3) This is your way to check that students didn’t just say the words, but actually understood the text. First, let students answer by pointing to the page/picture and saying a short sentence. After any answer, follow with: “Show me where you found that in the text.” In bigger groups, have partners answer first (10–20 seconds), then call on 2–3 students to share. Differentiation tips: Emerging speakers/struggling readers: oral + pointing On-level: oral in a full sentence Higher: one written sentence or draw + label Book Snapshot Title: All About Deserts Genre: Nonfiction (informational) Subject: Earth Science Primary Topic: Desert dryness, types, landforms, and living things Estimated Guided Reading Level (A–Z): N What This Book Teaches Best Defines a desert by low precipitation and explains how deserts are classified (less than 10 inches of rain or snow in a year). Compares hot and cold deserts and identifies what they share: extreme dryness. Explains how wind shapes desert landforms, including dunes and how they shift. Describes how plants and animals survive desert conditions using specific examples (saguaro cactus; dromedary camel; fennec fox). Shows how deserts can change over time through erosion and rare rain events like a “super-bloom,” and explains what an oasis is. Learning Goals Identify the defining feature of a desert using details from the text. Compare hot deserts and cold deserts using information from the book. Explain how wind can shape deserts by forming dunes and changing rocks over time. Describe how at least one desert plant and one desert animal survive using text evidence. Describe what happens during a “super-bloom,” according to the book. Explain what an oasis is and why it is important in the desert.
