During our Madeline study, we started a huge human body project using My Body by Teacher Created Resources. This is a super easy way to teach your student about what’s under the skin he’s in.
You trace your student’s body on a large piece paper and cut it out. Then you print a copy of the guide book, grab some colored pencils & scissors, and you’ll be all set.
We read about various body parts (information provided in the My Body book) and added 1-2 pieces of the body per day; it took us about ten school days from start to finish.
Even Simon got in on the fun.
the brain is hiding under the face
lungs and heart
liver, spleen, kidneys, gall bladder, stomach, small intestine, & large intestine (there is an appendix, but you can’t really see it)
Move the liver to make way for the pancreas!
bladder
muscles & bones

COOL! As always, thanks for the ideas! 🙂

This is so cool! Where did you get all the printables for this project??
Hi Terry,
The book is called My Body from Teacher Created Resources. I got it at Currclick. 🙂

I’m so thankful you shared this Ami! I have been looking for something to do with the kids on the human body.
This is so neat. I have this and we are starting our study next month. I cannot wait!
