Anatomy is the study of the structure of living things, and what better place to start than the human body. In our classroom, September is the month to explore “all about me” exercises, drawing their own human body, and the organs inside. But all throughout the year concepts in human anatomy help students participate in breathing exercises, reflex work, listing to their own heartbeat, and exercising musculature through music and movement activities. We also can’t forget all the ways we explore sensory experiences and relate them back to the parts of our bodies that help to create these moments.
