Game: The kids sat in their usual 3 rows.
· A leader was chosen for every group.
· The first person would have to carry 4 rings. He / She has to hop to the hula hoop and then throw the rings there onto the cone. Eugene, Sharlene and Jin Nan were quite good.
· It was fun because the kids thought it was easy until they flung the rings. We did for 2 rounds and Group 1 and 2 had a tie.
Kidneys
· We had 2 filters in our body. Liver and kidneys.
· We learnt earlier about liver and it is so important to clean our blood cells to be channeled to our body parts.
· We have 2 kidneys that look like beans.
· They have lots of blood capillaries.
· Imagination: Jack ate some noodles. The saliva broke them down. It went down through esophagus and theninto our stomach. The kids took turns trying to explain. The hydrochloric acid break the food into churn. Pancreas and gallbladder produce digestive juices to further break down the food into nutrients as to to be absorbed by small intestine and send them into bloodstream.
· The leftover goes to the large intestine which would be secreted with mucus of the large intestine walls. The leftover consist of water, undigested fiber and a few minerals. They are expelled through anus as discharged.
Watching CD
· Sharlene brought us a CD. We watched how food could be digested and provide us energy. We swallow food which was munched by our teeth and saliva breaks them even smaller. Down, it flows down through our Esophagus into the stomach and then further digested through the small intestines which proveides nutrients to our bloodstream. Next, to the big intestine and finally into our rectum as motion.
