Week of June 1st
We will be doing Health for the last few weeks of school. We will be
learning about nutrition, exercise, and also the systems of the body. We are
going to color and cut out different parts of the body such as the heart,
lungs, etc. and then the kids are going to actually trace their own bodies
and glue the body parts on! This is a project kids really enjoy, and they
learn a lot by doing it. You will enjoy the finished bodies when they come
home!
