As part of our nutrition unit, students had to think of a food they like that begins with the same letter as their first name. We had a hard time with the J's -- jelly and jellybeans were about all we could come up with. They made a book with paper plate pages about their food during writing. For science, we learned a song about our bodies: the heart pumps blood, the lungs fill with air, the stomach processes our food, and the brain tells our bodies what to do. We took our pulse at rest and after running place for 30 seconds.
