Activity # 2 (1st Grade)

“Connecting Body Parts”

Materials:
1. Copies of body parts
2. Markers
3. Scissors
4. Glue
5. Construction paper

Description:
1. Distribute a piece of construction paper and the copies of the body parts to the students.

2. Write the names of the body parts (not face parts) on the board and have them label their pictures. Let them color the eyes, hair, and clothing and then carefully cut them out, placing them on their construction paper as they do so.

3. Place the transparency pieces of the body and face parts on the overhead and ask two students to come up and assemble them. Leave the overhead projector light off as they do this and have the students assemble their body and face parts on their construction paper. Once all students have put their bodies together, turn on the overhead projector so they can see if they agree with the arrangement.
