Young scholars engage in a lesson that is concerned with the drawing of the anatomy of the human body. They conduct research using a variety of resources and create a drawing on the ground with sidewalk chalk. Students also view models...

Explore human anatomy and physiology using models. Scholars study systems of the human body and design a display for a museum exhibit. To complete the activity, individuals create analogous models of their chosen human body systems.

Young scholars identify the functions of various body parts. They participate in the "Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes" song, draw a picture of themselves and other mammals, and create a traced outline of their body that they add...

Young scholars examine the muscular system. In this muscular system lesson, students first draw a realistic representation of their leg or arm bones. Young scholars do several activities to attach these bones to "joints" with string...

Learners explore the major systems and functions of the human body. In this anatomy lesson, students make life-size outlines of bodies, diagram body systems, and present their work to their classmates.

Students discover proportions of the Human Body.  In this anatomy lesson, students create replicas of the Human body using nothing but paper and glue.  Students share their creations with the entire class.

Young scholars assimilate the names of the parts of the body. They practice spelling body part words using a worksheet. They trace the outline of their bodies, add features and label the body parts from the vocabulary list.

Students create body cutouts of themselves and label specific internal and external organs/parts that are covered in class in this exciting instructional activity on Human Anatomy. Digital cameras and pictures of various internal organs...

Students discover the anatomy of a human body by dissecting a cow's eye.  In this animal dissection lesson, students identify the structure of an eyeball by cutting open a cow eye and observing the insides.  Students...

Second graders complete a unit of lessons on the body systems. They watch the video, Magic Schoolbus Inside the Human Body, trace their bodies and construct the systems on the tracing, simulate the digestive system, and participate in...

Students are introduced to the anatomy of the human body. Using the different systems of the body, they look at how different artists made a picture out of paper. Individually, they make a cut out of various internal organs or bones. ...

Students are introduced to the history of showing the human anatomy. In groups, they measure their height and arm spans to create a graph and determine if their measurements support Vitruvius' work. Individually, they make their own...

Learners examine the different body systems and how they are interdependent on each other.  In this body systems lesson students draw the body and its parts. 

Students perform activities to explore how their arm works and what muscles are involved. They view animated comparisons of human and robotic arms. Students create a model of the human arm.

Young scholars create and construct human skeletons by rubbing casts of bone impressions on paper, and then label most important components of human skeleton.

Students research the skeletal system. In this anatomy lesson, students measure their bodies to find the approximate length of their bones. They draw and cut out each of the bones and then attach them using brads or glue. 

Students learn three different types of muscles. By building a model of the arm, they learn its basic anatomy and how muscles function in relationship to bones. They perform an experiment on the relationship between muscle size and...

Pupils complete multi-curricular to learn about senses and sensory words. In this sensory words lesson, students discuss the five senses and the anatomy of a tongue. Pupils complete a food tasting activity and find descriptive words to...

Students observe Australian X-ray paintings for information and to understand the art techniques used. Then they imagine and draw the inner organs of an animal. Students also research the anatomy of the animal to analyze the accuracy of...

Sixth graders learn about the colon and what it does. In this lesson about digestion and the colon, 6th graders analyze what this organ's job is. Students complete four activities where they explore the importance of fiber, the makeup of...

Students participate in a variety of activities to introduce them to biology. In this biology lesson plan, students use microscopes, discover bacteria, view human anatomy, and more.

Students explore the significance of a resting and an active heart rate. In this heart activity students chart data on their pulse and draw a diagram of the heart.

Students work in groups of 2-3 people to prepare a book about the human body that is suitable for a 3rd, 4th, or 5th grade student.

Students explore several examples of cardiovascular diseases. In this anatomy lesson, students explain why physical fitness is very important. They count their pulse rate and record them on a data table.
