Deze slide heeft geen instructies

What body parts do you know?

Use this to activate prior knowledge. Accept simple one-word answers such as eyes, hands, legs or nose.

The Human Body

  • Your body has many parts

  • Each part has a job

  • Body parts work together every day

Open with the simple idea that the body is like a team. Avoid too many scientific terms at first; keep it concrete and familiar.

Head and Face

We use our head and face all the time. They help us learn about the world around us.

You can model touching each part carefully as you name it. Keep the focus on safe, respectful body awareness.

Arms and Hands

  • Arms help us lift and carry

  • Hands help us hold things

  • Fingers help us write, draw and button clothes

The Body Centre

  • The neck holds up the head

  • The chest protects important parts inside

  • The stomach area is where food goes after we eat

  • The back helps us stand tall

Use simple language such as 'stomach area' for this age group. If you mention organs, keep it brief: heart and lungs are inside the chest.

The Body Centre

The middle of the body supports us and protects important parts inside.

Body Parts Work Together

Seeing a ball → moving your legs → catching with your hands


Different body parts help us do one action together.

This is the key idea that resolves the lesson: body parts do not work alone. Use another example if needed, such as eating or getting dressed.

Body Parts Work Together

  • Eyes look

  • Brain helps us think

  • Hands and feet move

  • The body acts as one team

The brain is introduced here only as a simple control idea, not as a full new topic. Keep the explanation age-appropriate.

Why is the body like one team?

Expected ideas: body parts do different jobs but join together to do one action, like seeing, moving and catching.

Looking After Our Bodies

  • Wash your body and hands

  • Eat healthy food

  • Sleep well

  • Exercise and play

  • Tell an adult if something hurts

Keep this rooted in health and wellbeing: body parts matter because we use them and care for them. Avoid turning this into a long hygiene lesson.

Looking After Our Bodies

When we care for our bodies, body parts can do their jobs well.
