Mini Lesson

You have studied the human body from every angle — its parts, its senses, and how to keep it healthy. Today you bring it all together into one creative project: a body collage.

What your collage will show

  • Body outline — a large front-facing body drawing with all seven parts labeled: head, neck, torso, arms, hands, legs, feet.
  • Five senses — arrows pointing to the five sense organs on the face: eyes (sight), ears (hearing), nose (smell), mouth/tongue (taste), skin/hands (touch).
  • Health habit panels — four small panels surrounding the body, one for each habit: Hygiene, Sleep, Exercise, Nutrition.

Connect each panel to the body

  • Draw an arrow from your hygiene panel to the hands (washing) and teeth (brushing).
  • Draw an arrow from your sleep panel to the brain (memory and growth hormone).
  • Draw an arrow from your exercise panel to the heart and legs (cardio and muscles).
  • Draw an arrow from your nutrition panel to the torso (stomach and organs).

Ask yourself: "What does each health habit do for my body? Which body part benefits most from each one?"
