Science Lesson

Students will make a life size model of the human body as they learn about the systems of the body. This Unit supports the Next Generation Science Standards.

The “Science Kids” series is intended to help teachers implement developmentally appropriate, hands-on science activities for children in Preschool, Kindergarten and the early grades. The activities in these packets are based on the scientific method and encourage inquiry-based learning. All activities can be differentiated to meet the needs of your students.

As we make the life size body model, the students will learn about:

★ The skeletal system (bones)

★ The respiratory system (lungs)

★ The muscular system (muscles)

★ The cardiovascular system (heart, veins and arteries)

★ The digestive system (stomach and intestines)

★ The nervous system (spine and brain)

This packet also includes a printable book: “My Amazing Body” (black and white)

Suggestions for additional activities are included (including printable activities)
