For example, the sun warms our skin, so to maintain our normal body temperature, we move into the shade.

Year 3. Unit 2. Our body: The skeleton

Year 4. Unit 2. Food and nutrition: A healthy, balanced diet

Our body needs food to help us grow, keep us healthy and give us energy. 

It is important to eat a healthy, balanced diet. 

A healthy diet includes nutrients from all the food groups. 

We also need to drink six to eight glasses of water a day!

We need to eat the correct amount of food so that we get enough energy to complete our daily activities. 

• If we eat too much food, our bodies accumulate the extra food as fat and we put on weight. 
• If we don’t eat enough food, we lose weight and we get thinner. 
• Being overweight or underweight can cause serious problems to our health.

Diets vary depending on how old a person is, and the amount of exercise they do. 

• When we are young, we need to eat enough food to be able to grow properly. 
• If we do a lot of exercise, we need to eat more foods that give us energy.

 Seahorses

• Seahorses are an unusual type of fish with a head that looks like a horse’s head. 
• They do not have scales and they swim in an upright position. 
• They are very slow swimmers, but they can quickly change colour, which provides camouflage to protect them from predators. 
• What makes seahorses truly unique is their way of reproducing.
• Male seahorses have a pouch where the females deposit the eggs. The males then carry the eggs until they hatch as tiny fully-formed seahorses.

What makes them unique?
