Dear Parents,
Today we explored the different parts of the body in our science lesson. On a large piece of butcher block paper I traced each child individually using a permanent marker. After each child was traced out, I had them color in their outfits using crayons. They colored their shirts, pants, and shoes based off of what they wore today. This allowed us to tell who each body outline belonged to. Next, we looked at the outlines and I had the students point out different parts of the body such as leg, arm, foot, head, etc. I then labeled these parts on the students’ body outlines. After labeling, I had the students draw and color in the eyes, nose, mouth, and hair. We then discussed these parts and labeled them on the body outlines. Once all of the body outlines were complete we hung them all over the classroom. The kids loved this activity and it was a fun way to learn about the body. The kindergarteners love to show off their outlines to each other.
Sincerely,
Ms. Gammell
