The+Digestive+System

Hello boys and girls! Today we had an exciting lesson about the digestive system and I am very proud of all of you for being such attentive listeners! I have graded the “Label the Digestive System” worksheet and a majority of you seem to have a great understanding of the digestive system.

*Please be sure to go to the "Discussion" page in order sign-up your group for the digestive system paper.*

Also, National Geographic has an interactive video called Down the Hatch, that shows the mouth and its parts up close. You can click on each function (salivary glands, teeth, tongue, hard and soft palate, uvula, and epiglottis) and get a detailed description of what each does, and how it works. It is not mandatory to look at this site, but it would help when writing your papers or to just expand upon your knowledge of the digestive system.
