Our first lesson of the unit is ‘animals including humans’ and we focused on the enquiry ‘What are bodies and what can they do?’.

To start our lesson we sang the song ‘head, shoulders, knees and toes‘.

We then drew round around Elijah and Reuben so we could then label human body parts. We had lots of fun!

 

Here are what some of the children said:

“We have a heart to pump blood around our body“- Mylie

“We have eyes so we can see“- Isabel

“We have a skeleton which is made of bones to make sure we can stand up and don’t fall over like jelly ”- Myles

“Our skin keeps protects everything in our body from falling out” Matilda

We then continued our learning through our continuous provision. We made and labelled the human body for our science working wall.
