Inside Our bodies

The first part of the year, we had focused on environmental nature.  We worked with natural materials and created art from reflecting on our outdoor experiences. 

This week we began our unit on the human body.  The theme began by asking the students to draw a picture of what their heart looks like.  Then we asked the question:







 What's inside your body?







Here are some of the responses:


Wilberto: Our hearts.

Tatiana: Our skeletons.

Kiarelys: Heart and air.

Lia: Blood.

Miguel: Your heart and your brain.

Jangel: Our ghost and bones and blood.

Ericsson: Bones.

Eliseo: Our spirit, heart, and brain.

Elias: Bones.

Yarilys: You got blood, you got your heart, you got your brain.

Sandieliz: Blood.

Aixa: Skeleton.

Shedialys: Bones.

Shaytara: Heart.

Marangeliz: Sangre.

Yadiel: Corazon.  

Jathems: Cerebro y carne.

 

Over the past couple weeks, we have explored different concepts related to the body.  Some students have been monitoring their heart after different physical activities in the classroom.  Some students have created observational drawings of the organs.  Also....some students have explored the human body through our literature available in the library and classroom.
