This unit was adjusted slightly throughout my placement as I progressed and learned more regarding timing of lessons, expectations of students and which assessment strategies suited each student best.

# data[].attributes.body
Again, timing was an issue in this lesson plan. It was my first experience of teaching a class and it became clear that I was expecting too much from the students in a short space of time. Therefore, the original lesson plan has been adjusted for the purpose of this assignment and future lessons.

This is a short simple video that explains all of the essential parts and facts about digestion and the digestive system. It covers what the book does in a more stimulating way and without getting too complicated.

The digestive system and digestion | Educational Video for Kids

This video can be used to teach students about the minerals in their food, their functions, properties, deficiency diseases, etc. It stimulates their interest in the overall topic of digestion and in asking more questions.

This is displayed on the board for students to fill in and they also have their own copy to complete.

This is a useful resource to assess the students individually when the topic of digestion is covered. All aspects are tested in these questions.

This is a good simple PowerPoint to accompany the video above. It covers the topic of digestion without getting too complicated.

I believe that the key to understanding the function of the digestive system is understanding food and the nutrients it contains. The book did not cover this topic so I found this video a good resource to show how simple carrying out various food tests can be.

This video is another excellent source of information about digestion. It covers the basics (for students who have a lower learning ability). For students with a higher ability, I would make sure to highlight anything significant it fails to mention, e.g. the term peristalsis.

There is no experiment associated with digestion outlined in the book we used. I found this video of an experiment very interesting and easy to do. It helps the students understand the working of the digestive system and it can even be carried out at home.

Lesson Idea: Digestive System Experiment | Reach Out CPD

This is a useful resource to use in a class. Students fill it in at the beginning of the class regarding what they know and what they would like to know. They then finish it at the end by filling in what they have learned then hand it up to the teacher to assess the learning and plan for the next lesson.

# data[].attributes.body
This is also another very interesting video. I found that my students thought of every question possible, including this. The formation of and the expelling of vomit from the digestive system is explained in a way that the students can understand.

Acid in the stomach was a very popular conversation starter with each of the class groups. They were very interested in how it is not harmful to us, so this video is a brilliant resource to help them understand how.

My classes were full of plenty students ready to ask questions as soon as they came in the door. I soon realised they were a class that learn by seeing something rather than reading about it. Therefore, this resource sparked much interest and many questions.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a brilliant video that gives a real life insight into digestion and answers a lot of interesting questions students have (especially regarding numeracy), such as the time it takes for food to reach the stomach and how long it stays there before moving on.

I picked this video as a resource to develop the students' numerical skills. It focuses on the large and small intestines, which is usually what students find the most difficult to understand as neither is actually small. It is a useful resource to break down the learning of the whole system into its various parts
