Discover the significance of organization from cells to organ systems in school structures. Learn how students, grades, and houses reflect different levels of organization, mirroring the body's cellular hierarchy. Explore the key components that make up tissues, organs, and organ systems. Engage in a fun role-play activity to understand and visualize these levels effectively.

Levels of Organization By Miss Musich
Why do we need to organize? • Organize – to put something in order • We organize to make something more manageable. • For example, the MWMS is organized! • Students are the basic unit • A group of students make up a grade (6th, 7th or 8th) • A group of grades make up a house (6th + 7th + 8th = Red) • A group of houses make up the whole school. • Why do we organize like this?
Cells • Cells are the smallest unit in the body • So small you need a microscope to see them! Red Blood Cells Onion Cells
Cells have organelles! • Organelles are like organs for cells! cell membrane nucleus cytoplasm
Tissue! Not that kind of tissue… Bone tissue is a group of bone cells working together!
An organ! Try again! A group of bone tissue makes up an organ like the femur seen here! Did you know the femur is the longest bone in the body?
An organ system! A group of organs (bones) make up the skeletal system!
Let’s jump back… …to my example earlier. • What do MW students represent? • Cells • What do grades represent? • Tissue • What do houses represent? • Organs • What does the entire school represent? • An Organ System
Study Strip! • Once you receive a strip of construction paper, fold it into four squares so it looks like this: • Then illustrate and label each box with the levels of organization starting from smallest to largest. Also, please write the definition of these structures on the back
