Students will love meeting Dr. Picklepeppertoot, an eccentric doctor recruiting them as interns. Before they can start, they must prove their knowledge of the human body systems by diagnosing three young patients: Jamarius, Taylan, and Selena. With the WebQuest activity pages, students will explore each system of the body via linked pre-selected websites; then, they'll use their learning to make a diagnosis of each patient.

In this project-based learning activity, students will study the Nervous System, Circulatory System, Respiratory System, Digestive System, Skeletal System, and Muscular System.
