We will begin the unit with the creating of the wiki resource (see links in the navigation bar to the right). The following criteria are expected to be met by each group as they create their wiki page.

Requirements for Body Systems wiki · “Pretty” title · Describe the major function of the system · Major system organs and their functions · Connections to at least 2 other systems (hyperlinked to those groups wiki pages) · Multiple photographs, diagrams, etc.
 * Please also include all resources as hyperlinks or hypertext in your page.
