Lesson Plan

1Opening (5 min)

Explore how body systems work like a team, just as the church works together as the body of Christ

💭 Review Question: What body systems did we discuss in our last lesson?
2Teaching (10 min)

Explain how body systems interconnect and support each other

📌 Key Talking Points:
  • Respiratory system provides oxygen to blood
  • Circulatory system distributes oxygen and nutrients
  • Digestive system breaks down food for energy
💬 Discussion Questions:
  • How might the respiratory system help the circulatory system?
