Inside My Body
Know that the heart beats, lungs breathe, bones hold us up, and teeth chew.
Warm-up, learn, try it together, practice, then a quick check. 10 minutes or less.
For grown-ups
Your child learns what the heart, lungs, bones, brain, and teeth do. We suggest reading it together.
What children learn in Level 10
- Some body parts are inside us. We can't see them, but they work all day!
- Your heart pumps blood. Put your hand on your chest. Can you feel it go thump, thump?
- Your lungs breathe air in and out. Take a big breath. Your lungs fill up!
- Your bones hold you up, and your brain helps you think. Your teeth chew your food. Your turn! Which part thinks? Your brain!
- Try it with a grown-up! Feel your heartbeat. Then jump ten times and feel it again. Is it faster?
