Body Systems

We have finished discussing the digestive system and are moving into discussing the respiratory system (we will continue to discuss digestion now in our health unit on nutrition). The students have taken notes on the different sections of the digestive system (mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine or colon) and it would be good for them to review as there will be a test on the different systems at the end of our unit. In the section on the respiratory system, students will again be taking notes on the way the system works. It would be good to discuss the way we breathe with the students, and I will try to add more information on the blog as we move along.
