Ira in K2: 5 senses and body parts

This term is about learning body parts. Last week Ira learned about the 5 senses. He was so excited to tell me about it while walking home. At first he was a bit struggling to remember what they were but he was able to finish the list by the time we got home. I told him to always remember his face/body - what is the eye for? the nose? the ear? the mouth/tongue? the skin? The following day he used the idea and was able to enumerate all 5 senses.

The other day, while picking up Ira from school, the teacher talked to me about their lesson. That day was about the lungs. She said Ira mentioned that the rib cage protects the lungs and the heart, although it was not discussed in class yet. I remember Ira was telling me about this topic. He probably learned it from Kelvin - in his skeletal system lesson last year. The advantage of having a big brother :)
