The Body

We have been learning about our bodies, so we decided to make life size drawings of ourselves and all our inside parts. Today we were working on the digestive system. As we cut out each part, we talked about its function.

Shem and I were talking about what the large intestine does. He said, "It sucks out all the extra water and then holds the left over food til you have to poop."

Arianna said, "Ew! I don't want one of those in my body!"

Shem and I just looked at each other. I could see him trying to figure out what would happen if we DIDN'T have a large intestine...
