SOS: Similarities and Differences
Natural and Human-made Systems
Background
Natural vs Human-Made Systems
This SMART Exchange notebook lesson gives a brief overview of natural and human-made and then provides a sort with pictures. This would be a great piece to use to activate prior knowledge, as students could do this at the beginning of the lesson.
This Discovery Education video clip Introduction to Body Systems would provide students with background information following the activity when content is being introduced. This video explains the nervous system in the body and compares it to a computer.
