Today's topic was the Organs of the Body! We first talked to the kids about what they think are some organs of the body and think about what they think is the most important one of them all. We then watched a clip from Arthur, which explained the different functions of the organs and why they are important for our body. We then started to discuss in detail the importance of each organ and how it works. We talked about the brain, and how it controls out body movements and our dreams! Then the intestines and how they digest our foods and get rid of the toxins in our body, and how the small intestines are 5 feet long! We talked about the heart and how it pumps the blood through our body and works in partnership with the lungs as well! We then talked about the kidney's and how they look like beans and how they mainly help us go to the bathroom by getting rid of the excess liquids and waste. We then asked them questions to see what they learned. After, we did some riddles, we had to guess the body organ the riddle was talking about, and through that activity, they were able to learn the more in-depth functions of each organ. By the end of class, they were able to identify some very important organs inside of all of us and tell us why they are important for us to live!
