Teach Body Smarts
 
Dear ,
Animate your human body curriculum by teaching anatomy and body functions through these content rich songs!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The eleven songs in the Human Body School - Body Opera for primary age provide a value added, experiential journey into the following areas:

            Healthy Living, Fitness and Nutrition

            The Circulatory System and the Heart

            The Respiratory System

            The Digestive System

            Body Organs and their basic functions

            Body Vocabulary (including three bilingual songs)

            Body Anatomy Groupings and Connections

The Body Opera is definitive arts integrated education. It is fun and we've made it easy to implement as a teaching tool or as a full-out performance. It is an incredibly effective way to teach the human body.

The Human Body School fosters "body smarts". It's about being good body researchers; having a fundamental understanding of how our bodies work; and being able to make healthy lifestyle choices.

 It generates a rare confidence, learning versatility and feeling of camaraderie between your students; bringing the important knowledge of the human body off the backboard, out of the textbooks and worksheets and INTO LIFE!

Learning about the human body should be one of the most exciting adventures in a young person's education! The only reason many children find it to be boring is because of how it is taught, nothing else. You can change this!
