The following health lessons helps students work to improve age-appropriate
physical fitness, and demonstrate motor skills required for individual and team
activities. Students will be able to create a visual representation of the human body
and recognize the difference between the ways animals move compared to the ways
humans move. Students will also learn about and participate in a circle dance and
song to help develop knowledge of their body parts. This lesson integrated health
with physical education, music, and art. This is a great lesson to integrate many
subjects and keep the students active and learning.
Materials:
– Large paper Markers/Crayons
– Animal Pictures
Focus:
Physical Education
– Body movement with the human body. – Music- Circle Dance
– Art- Recognizing and drawing the human body.
Student Objectives:
Students will
1 . Create a visual representation of the human body.
2. Recognize the difference between the ways animals move compared to the way humans
move.
3. Learn about and participate in a circle dance.
4. Develop knowledge of their body parts.
Teaching Procedure:
Introduction
1 . Introduce body parts.
Sing “Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes.” (5 minutes)
Development
1 . Get into groups of three and have one person lay flat on a large piece of paper and the
other two will trace them. Once the body is drawn out the group members will draw pictures
on the main body parts (head, arms, hands, fingers, feet, toes, and legs). The pictures can be
of ways that they use those parts. ( 1 5 minutes)
2. With pictures of different animals (bird, monkey, snake, elephant,
rabbit, and frog) they will pantomime how the animals move their T similar body parts. (5
minutes)
3. Learn a circle dance that helps to show the different parts of the body. They will move
around showing the different parts. (7-10 minutes) Conclusion
4. The students will present their picture of the human body. Each student will tell about a part
that they drew on the picture.
Assessment:
Assessing the students would have to be done through observations that the teacher makes.
A checklist of their participation, knowledge of material, fine motor skills, and group work
would be the criteria that they would need to meet to move on.
Human Skeleton
Activity:
Key Questions What do you think your skeleton looks
like? What jobs (functions) does your
skeleton do?
If you didn’t have a skeleton, what would it stop you doing?
Activity:
Input – Give children a blank outline of a human body. (Appendix 1)
Will ask children to visualise what their skeletons look like.
Will ask children to draw inside the outline and discuss with a partner what they know
about the skeleton.
Will show children ‘Bones Presentation’ (attached) and discuss the different bones.
Will ask children to feel the bones through their skin – can they feel their ribs, skull,
pelvis, spine?
What function/job does the skeleton do?
Movement
Protection
Support
Will discuss what children have learned – can they point to skull, ribs, spine and pelvis on their own
body?
Objective: By the end of this lesson, students will be able to:
Materials:
1. Begin by asking students what they know about how their bodies move. Encourage them to share
their thoughts.
2. Explain that in this lesson, they will learn about the musculoskeletal system, which includes the
muscles and bones that enable our bodies to move.
1. Use visual aids like diagrams or pictures to introduce the major components of the musculoskeletal
system.
2. Explain the roles of muscles (contracting and relaxing) and bones (providing support and structure)
in movement.
3. Discuss the concept of muscles working in pairs (agonist and antagonist) for controlled movement.
1. Discuss different types of joints in the human body (e.g., hinge joints, ball-and-socket joints, pivot
joints, etc.).
2. Show examples of these joints using your own body (e.g., bending your elbow to demonstrate a
hinge joint).
3. Ask students to identify joints on their own bodies as you explain them.
Conclusion (5 minutes):
1. Recap the main points of the lesson: the musculoskeletal system, types of joints, and how muscles
and bones work together.
2. Ask if there are any questions or if anything is unclear.
Assign a short homework assignment related to the lesson, such as researching a specific joint in
the body or writing a paragraph on the importance of exercise for maintaining a healthy
musculoskeletal system.
Assessment:
Assess students' understanding through their participation in class discussions, group activities, and
their ability to answer questions during the lesson.
Show a video or conduct a hands-on experiment (if materials are available) to further illustrate how
muscles and bones work togethe to produce movement.
