Question: How can you begin HBS work when something you need is missing?

function
The job a body part does.
mastery
Showing what you know and can do.

Read first

Human Body Systems asks how body parts work together. A structure is a body part and its form. A function is the job it does. We will use records and models to connect the two.

A routine is a set of steps you repeat. Use this entry routine: enter on time, get your materials, find the day's target, put your phone away, and begin. Be prepared, respectful, and on task. If materials are missing, tell the teacher and begin on plain paper.

Mastery means showing what you know and can do. Turning in a page gives the teacher something to check. The work on that page must still show the skill. Ask the teacher about the current rules for late work and another chance to show a skill. This sheet does not set those rules.

A learning goal names a skill you want to improve and an action you can repeat. Example: I want to explain body-system connections. I will add a labeled sketch to my notes.

Practice the missing-notebook decision

This is an invented classroom situation. Your notebook is at home. Paper and the directions on this page are available.

Compare the three actions in the decision discussion. Use the supplied routine to decide which action lets you start. This is practice, not another submission.

Try the decision

Your notebook is at home. The supplied routine says to get paper, tell the teacher, and begin the goal. Which plan follows that routine?

  • Ask for paper, tell the teacher, and begin writing your own goal.
  • Copy a finished goal from another person because your notebook is at home.
  • Wait until tomorrow to start the goal without telling the teacher about your missing notebook.

Explain your choice using the reading. Discuss it or say it to yourself. This practice does not add another submission.

Your response record

Use these labels on paper or in your document. The space below also works when this page is printed.

My semester goal

Name an HBS skill you want to improve and an action you can repeat.

Use the reading and example above. Write in your own words.

One classroom expectation

State one expectation in your own words.

Use the reading and example above. Write in your own words.

One question I still have

Ask a question about the course or the work.

Use the reading and example above. Write in your own words.

Check your product

  • My goal names a skill and a repeatable action.
  • My expectation matches the supplied routine.
  • My question is about the course or the work.

Using a routine cannot prove future mastery. Ask the teacher for grading and retake rules.

If the assignment or upload will not open, keep your paper or saved file. Tell Mr. Mendoza the lesson title and what is blocked.

Connection to PLTW

Original classroom preparation. Follow the work and turn-in directions on this page.

These references locate related course material. Complete only the official work and stopping point your teacher assigns. This local preparation does not establish completion of an online activity.

Optional practice and examples

Use these resources to practice related skills. Follow the required work and evidence limits above. A simulation does not authorize a live experiment or add another submission.

Slides and optional notes

The response record above is your required work. Guided notes are optional and do not add a second submission.

Keep going

If you were absent or lost your place, read the word guide and reading first. Try the example, then complete the first unfinished response.

No partner is required. Read your response aloud to yourself and check it against the product checklist.
