Healthy Lifestyles and Learning

In Elementary P.E., students have been taking quarterly health lessons to learn more about how to take care of their God-given bodies. This past week, in learning about how to care for the body, students were first introduced to what systems make up our bodies! Six major organ systems were introduced: the skeletal system, muscular system, circulatory system, respiratory system, digestive system, and nervous system. Like any system, all these parts are essential to a healthy, thriving body!

Like other health lessons, this lesson began with a fun, competitive Kahoot game where students' prior knowledge was tested. Students then watched a BBC Learning video, “Parts of the Human Body,” and reviewed some slides while filling out a worksheet together entitled, “What is an Organ?” We are looking forward to our next health lesson in December, where we will be building off our knowledge of body systems, to learning about how to take care of these body systems!
