Science Sight Word Readers: Muscle

I read the story, Muscles, by Justin McCory Martin.  This is a Early Sight Word Reader on the topic and it provides a small amount of information great for primary.  The last page is a read aloud page that provides more in depth information about muscles.  This is where I read about voluntary and involuntary muscles.  The students also watched the video How the Body Works: The Muscular System.  This video goes over the different types of muscles and it's funny!  There are a lot of videos available on this site.


This graphic organizer was a new one for me however, I ended up really liking the results.  The students tackled some hard vocabulary words and the organizer helped them to visualize the meaning of these two opposite words.
