Urinary System Activity – Human Body Files

Description

This Urinary System Activity is full of Pop-ups — Flaps — Pockets — Awesomeness!

What are Human Body Files?

Human Body Files is an interactive learning experience that enables students to turn serious content into a colorful collection of graphic notes, diagrams, foldables, cards, pop-ups, and more!

The process of creating this unique file is a valuable activity that helps students review important topics and build their metacognitive skills.

 

What will students be doing?

Your students will take an ordinary manila file folder and create an extraordinary Urinary System File. Using what they’ve heard, read, and experienced in your classroom they’ll add their own personal style to bring the included Human Body Files templates, pop-ups, and foldables to LIFE!

As they organize information, color and label diagrams, sequence events, add their own notes and drawings, and collaborate with their peers, they are able to visualize main ideas and make connections between concepts.

And, the result? A creative, reflective portfolio of all the information you want them to know about the Urinary system!
