Homeschool bodies: Flex those muscles

 

Flex those red, tissue paper muscles!

 

We learned that there are three types of muscles: smooth, cardiac and skeletal.
After trying our hardest not to move a muscle, we discussed voluntary vs. involuntary muscles.
And we attempted to build some skeletal muscles through vigorous exercise too.
I had to take pictures of their notes - so sweet.

I love our paper bodies! They brightly welcome every visitor to our home - talk about a conversation piece. Ha.
