**Activity One: __What is the digestive system?__**

Groups will watch a YouTube video and answer questions based on information from the video. This video engages students into the digestive system. The game is similar to a bouncing container activity and is a follow up from the video however, is not the focus of the activity. Teachers will be looking at how students have progessed on the extension crossword.



**Activity Two: __How does the digestive system work?__**

This activity will look more in depth at the particular organs of the digestive system. The first diagram introduces each organ and is a lead up to activity three. The experiment allows students to see how digestive looks like first hand, also to differentiate learning and move away from the computer. The game is to emphasis digestion as a process and is a fun way to complete activity two.



**Activity Three: __Why is the digestive system important to me?__**

Activity three requires students to apply their own understanding of the digestive system. Through presenting their ideas, they are solidifying what they have learnt. Teachers will be focused on research strategies and how groups have presented their findings. Teachers will use the presentations as evaluation of student progression.
