About this worksheet
Six body parts inside us, each with a colored picture: brain, heart, lungs, stomach, intestines and bones. Third graders read six job descriptions (pumps blood all around the body, breathe air in and out, hold the body up) and connect each organ to its job. The key on page 2 draws the lines in red. Third graders can use it for a simple human body science lesson, around ages 8 to 9.

Tips for using it
- Before any worksheet, play "touch your...": call out a body part and have kids touch it on themselves. The labels stick much faster after the body has done it.
- On the labeling pages, read the word bank aloud together first and cross each word out once it is used.
- For the cut and paste page, cut the word cards first and lay them on the table; younger kids can glue them while you read.
- Pair the measuring page with real objects: connecting cubes, paper clips or LEGO bricks all work as units.
