As the students have already learnt about the different body parts which we can see with our eyes in their previous chapter, now they will be asked if they can name some body parts which we cannot see and which are present inside our body? This discussion will be conducted through zoom class and their responses will be summarized.
They will be asked few questions like:
• Name an organ which helps us to think?
• Students will be told to put their hand on the left side of their chest and they will be asked if they can hear any sound? Which organ produces such sound?
Their responses will be summarized and they will be further told that today we will discuss – ‘What is inside our body?’ They will be told that our brain, heart, lungs, stomach etc are the internal organs because they are present inside our body. Alao, we have many other internal organs like kidneys, liver etc. And ,the explanation will be given in the following way:-
Let’s start from head. Inside the head is the brain. It is the thinking organ. It controls all parts of our body. It collects information from our surroundings (with the help of sense organs) and tells our body parts what to do.
After learning what is inside our head, they will be told-
Let’s learn what is inside our chest! Inside the chest, is the heart. The heart beats all the time and pumps blood to all parts of the body. So it is also called the pumping organ. Doctors use an instrument to hear the heartbeats and it is called stethoscope.
The other internal organs will be taken in the upcoming week.
The following worksheets given below will be given as homework.
To make their understanding clearer, a link will be shared to them.
