Introduction
a science webquest designed for 2nd graders.
The human body is a miracle system where all the parts work together to do our all daily duties. Thus,it's very important to learn how it works perfectly.
Children need to know:
- Body parts' names
- Their functions
- Which parts of the body needed to do a certain activity...
Task
The duties children need to do ;
- Colouring and writing body parts in flashcards.
- Watch the music video and imitate
- Match the body parts with their names and listen
Process
Task 1 : Print sets of flashcards for parts of the body , or print some for you to colour in and write the words !

Task 2 : First,listen and watch the music video about body parts and after that try to imitate it.

Conclusion
Coming to the end.....!!!
When children are done, they will be aware of the following statements:
1)Awareness of their own body
2)Ability to recognize when the body parts are shown as pictures
3)Recognition of the names of their body parts
4)Enrichment of their science vocabularies
5)Ability to write names of the body parts
