Digestive System- Nutrition

LI: To learn about nutrition and to finish off our compulsory task. This week for inquiry we were learning about nutrition. We had to finish off our compulsory tasks. The compulsory tasks that my group and I finished was the google slide and and the poster/ picture. For the google slide we had to write about what each part of the digestive system does. We decided to add some photos. For the google slide my group and I got two points. For the picture we had to draw the parts of the digestive system on a piece of paper. We also had to write down the meaning of each part. My group and I got two points. All together my group and I have nine points because we did some tasks last week too. We only need 2 more tasks to move on to the elective tasks. I had a lot of fun completing two of the compulsory tasks.

18 Sentence Explanation

LI: To write an 18 sentence explanation/LI: To write basic paragraphs. This week for writing we had to write an 18 sentence explanation. First we had to watch a video about a earthworm's digestive system. Once we watched the video we had to make a copy of a explanation planner. Once we made a copy we had to write down what each step of the digestive system does. We had to include the title, the introduction and the conclusion too. The seven steps of a earthworm's digestive system is the mouth, pharynx, oesophagus, crop, gizzard, intestine and the anus. Mr. Wong did the mouth for the explanation planner. Each group had to work together to make sentences for only the pharynx. We had to have two sentences for the introduction, the seven steps and the conclusion, so that our explanation could be a 18 sentence explanation. For each two sentences we had to have a statement and a explanation.
