The Unit Plan:

Make teaching Anatomy & Physiology easy with this combined unit and daily lesson plan that covers 1 - 2 weeks of a secondary A & P course. SIOP, gifted, and differentiation strategies are embedded and easily identified throughout. Lessons are differentiated according to learning style, grouping, and language ability. Both content and literacy standards as well as key vocabulary words, essential questions, activating strategies, instructional strategies, and summarizing strategies are included and highlighted. Video links are provided! (Please note that video links are active but may requires access to United Streaming and/or that you be logged into your google account)

Content Standards:

SAP3: Students will assess the integration and coordination of body functions and their dependence on the endocrine and nervous systems to regulate physiological activities..

• Interpret interactions among hormones, senses, and nerves which make possible the coordination of functions of the body.
• Investigate the physiology of electrochemical impulses and neural integration and trace the pathway of an impulse, relating biochemical changes involved in the conduction of the impulse.
• Describe how the body perceives internal and external stimuli and responds to maintain a stable internal environment, as it relates to biofeedback.

Literacy Standards:

• L11-12RST2: Determine the central ideas of conclusions of a text; summarize complex concepts, processes, or information presented in a text by paragraphing them in simpler but still accurate terms.
• L11-12RST3: Follow precisely a complex multistep procedure when carrying out experiments…

Content Objectives (TSWBAT):

1. Define hormone and target organ.
2. Describe how hormones bring about their effects in the body.
3. Explain how various endocrine glands are stimulated to release their hormonal products.
4. Define negative feedback and describe its role in regulating blood levels of the various hormones.
5. Describe the difference between endocrine and exocrine glands.
6. On a diagram, identify the major endocrine glands and tissues.
7. List hormones produced by the endocrine glands, and discuss their general
8. Describe major pathological consequences of hypersecretion and hyposecretion of common hormones. (GHRH, PRH, TRH, CRH, GNRH, oxytocin, ADH, GH, PRL, TSH, ACTH, FSH, LH, Melatonin, T4, T3, Calcitonin, Insulin, glucagon, PTH…)
9. Describe the functional relationship between the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland.
10. Indicate the endocrine role of the kidneys, the stomach, and intestine, the heart, and the placenta.
11. Describe the effect of aging on the endocrine system and body homeostasis.

Language Objectives:

1. Discuss the importance ways in which hormones promote body homeostasis by giving examples of hormone action.
2. Read clinical cases of homeostatic imbalances of the endocrine system.
3. Write, discuss, and use key vocabulary appropriately.
