1. CELLS
Numbered heads together. Name the three smallest living things and the three
biggest non-living things that you can imagine.
Play in pairs. Draw and your partner will guess which cell it is.
Cells are very small, but they have different sizes and shapes.
2. LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION
Dictation.
- We are multicellular living things and our cells work together at different levels.
They are levels of organization.
1-2-group. Look and match from the simplest to the most complex level of
organization.
Work in group. Watch the video and draw your group coordinator’s levels of
organization. Make his/her nervous system to do it.

Work in groups. Read cooperatively, draw each sense organ, write some
information and complete the nervous system poster.
- Sight: The eyes are the sense organs of sight.
They detect light so we can see shapes and
colours. We also estimate distances.
The receptors are in the retina and the information
travels through the optic nerve.
Dictation.
- The information goes from the receptors to the brain. The brain interprets the information.
Work in groups. Use your posters to prepare a 3-minute exposition. Everybody must
participate.
Look at the parts of the nervous system. Memorize them in one minute and play
‘Simon Says’.
Work in pairs. Read cooperatively and tick ( ) the 3 tasks of the nervous system.
It receives and interprets information from external and internal environment (stimuli).
It gives you energy from food.
It supports and protects your body.
It gives orders for your body to respond to stimuli.
It controls and coordinates all organs and systems in your body.
It is a dwarf planet and moves around the Sun.
One member of each group is going to draw a nervous tissue on the board using a
lot of neurons.
Work in groups. Watch this video, look at this diagram and make a few cards with
stimuli and other cards with their appropriate responses. Then, play a matching
game.
Stimulus and Watch this video and write five
Response – examples of reflexes and learned
Elementary reactions.
