KUD-Excretory System

Know
Parts of Excretory system
(Urinary system- Kidneys,
Ureters, Urethra, Bladder)
Lungs, Skin and Large
Intestines
Understand
How kidneys filter waste from
blood?
Role of Nephrons in filtering
the blood to form urine
Do
Use Think-dot strategy to
construct understanding of
parts of Excretory system
Reading, videos

Structure, function of each Understand the importance of Filling graphic organiser to

part and location of the excretory system understand structure and
organs involved in the function of each part of the
Excretory System How is Urine formed? urinary system

The kidneys remove waste Understand the difference
products called urea from the between Osmosis and
blood through tiny filtering Diffusion
units called nephrons
Excretion also happens
Osmosis and Diffusion through
Skin- Sweat
Lungs- Carbon dioxide, water
How excretion happens from vapours
Skin, Lungs and Large Intestine Large Intestine- Solid waste
Making and Labelling
Excretory system diagram and
explain in the form of
writing/infographic/concept
map how kidneys filter blood
to remove waste?
or
Making model to demonstrate
how kidneys filter blood to
remove waste?

Conduct an experiment to
understand the process of
Osmosis

Use T chart to list out the

differences between Osmosis
and diffusion

Explain the role of other

organs in eliminating waste
from the body

Think- dot strategy (Six questions)

1. What are the four organs of the excretory system?

2. Why is the excretory system important to the human body?
3. How do kidneys clean the blood?
4. How is perspiration important to regulating body temperature?
5. What role do other organs perform in eliminating wastes from the body?
6. Explain the process how is urine formed and eliminated from the body?
