Check the sample answers
  1. It beats faster
    Your heart beats faster to pump more blood during exercise.
  2. Warm up your body first
    Warming up gets your muscles ready and helps prevent injury.
  3. It makes them stronger
    Exercising often builds stronger muscles.
  4. No, exercise helps your whole body, including your heart and lungs
    Exercise benefits the whole body, not just one part.

Practice focus

Exercise keeps your body healthy and strong. When you are active, your heart beats faster and you breathe faster to deliver more oxygen, and over time exercise builds stronger muscles, bones, heart, and lungs. Sweating helps cool you down. Warming up before and cooling down after, drinking water, resting, and being active every day are all part of exercising safely, and exercise can also lift your mood and energy.

About these worksheets

Exercise and the body. These Grade 2 science worksheets stay with that single skill: every question is answerable from the printed page, and the answer sheet explains why each answer is correct.

How to use the worksheets

  3. Compare the result with the answer sheet and read the short explanation together.

How this practice can help students

Exercise keeps your body healthy and strong. When you are active, your heart beats faster and you breathe faster to deliver more oxygen, and over time exercise builds stronger muscles, bones, heart, and lungs. Sweating helps cool you down. Warming up before and cooling down after, drinking water, resting, and being active every day are all part of exercising safely, and exercise can also lift your mood and energy. Generating the page again keeps the same learning goal while changing the questions, so a learner can revisit the skill without repeating the same items.

Review and next steps

Ask the learner to say what made one answer better than the others. Grade placement is a planning guide for choosing practice. The registry records standard-code mappings as unreviewed, so these pages are not a claim of alignment with a national standard.
