Science - Human Body

This week we learned about:  MUSCLES


First we read from The Human Body to learn about our muscles,
how they work, and what they need to stay healthy:
Exercise and Protein!
We talked about what kind of food has protein in it,
and what activities are good exercise.

We talked about the different kinds of muscles:
Voluntary
Involuntary
Cardiac

Then they filled out their workbooks.


Then each of the boys got to do a muscle movement experiment.
As they moved specific body parts, they felt as their muscles
contracted and relaxed.

We finished off by doing some exercise together!

Next week:  The Brain
