Target Level: Explain how different organs of the body carry out essential functions of life.EE.HS-LS1-1

Precursor Level: Indicate the function of major organs of the body.  EE.HS-LS1-1

Initial Level: Identify major organs of the body.  EE.HS-LS1-1

Target Level: Use a model to illustrate the organization and interaction of major organs into systems (e.g., circulatory, respiratory, digestive, sensory) in the body to provide specific functions. EE.HS-LS1-2

Precursor Level: Identify which organs work for a specific function.  EE.HS-LS1-2

Initial Level: Recognize that different organs have different functions.  EE.HS-LS1-2

Target Level: Collect data from an investigation to show how different organisms react to changes (e.g., heart rate increases with exercise, pupils react to light).EE.HS-LS1-3
