How do live lessons work?

Live lessons are interactive slides and course outlines that are used to teach Treeway Live Classes. Click on the arrows to navigate backward and forwards through the slides.

How Do I Use the Lesson Plans?

Read this lesson plan before class to familiarize yourself with the ideas and concepts you’ll be teaching the students. You may print this page out if you need to use it as a reference point during live classes.

This lesson is a guide, but feel free to expand on the content or decrease/increase what you teach depending on the learning levels of the students in your class or the amount of time you have to cover the material.

Can I show videos in live classes?

Yes, feel free to include additional material to supplement the class lesson material. Videos, Physical Objects, Games, Activities, etc. are okay to share in live classes.

Videos should have no advertisements or logos and should be viewed by you before showing them to the students to ensure no offensive or questionable content is included.

The video should make up only a small portion of the live class.

How do bookmarks work?

Bookmarks help you keep track of lessons you’re going to teach in future live classes. The bookmarks you see are for all your bookmarked lessons across all grades.

You can bookmark a lesson by visiting the lesson you want to bookmark and clicking the “bookmark” button in the bookmark section.

You can remove a single bookmark by visiting a lesson you’ve bookmarked and clicking the “bookmark” button again to unbookmark it.

You can clear all of your bookmarks by clicking the “clear all bookmarks” button. Be careful, this will erase all of your bookmarks.

Lesson Slide

1G6A – Lungs

Main Teaching Points

  • Explain: Breathing is very important. Ask children what happens if we forget to breathe. Explain that breathing is so important that Jehovah made our bodies to breath automatically. He loves us and wants us to stay alive so we can be his friend, so we never have to think about breathing. Humans breathe through our respiratory system.  Explain that we breathe because your body needs oxygen.
  • Draw: A picture of where the lungs are in the body. (“Your lungs are in your chest.”)
  • Explore: Breathing in and out. ( Air comes in through our nose and mouth.)

Discussion Questions

  1. What is a breath? What is breathing? Why do you need to breathe?
  2. What parts of your body are used for breathing?
  3. What happens to your breathing when you sleep?

In-Class Activities

  • Practice: Practice inhaling (breathing in) and exhaling (breathing out). Put your hands on your chest to feel what happens to your lungs and chest when you inhale and exhale.
  • Noses are Important: Practice inhaling (breathing in) and exhaling (breathing out). Put your hands on your nose to feel what happens when you inhale and exhale.
  • Explore: Lungs work with air, not underwater.
