Here is a song I created to help my 6th grade students study. I hope you enjoy. Your mouth controls Chewing food with saliva Moisten food changing Starch to a sugar, now Your throat makes food go down Pharynx, gullet Esophagus Food travels down esophagus To the stomach Now it’s speeding away Digestive tract Yeah, stomach Will crush and swish The food and juice In folds, rugae Pass the lips, pharynx Through esophagus Peristalsis In the stomach churned with digestive juices Into the small intestine Digestion Water, fiber Into large intestine Colon Water is absorbed into your bloodstream The semi-solid feces Out rectum, now Oh, oh Oh, oh The food will move to a tube Small intestine Duodenum, jejunum And ileum Now, the juice Is there is here From the liver And pancreas It will break down the proteins Starch and the fats Digestive glands help to make juices-enzymes Yeah, the liver Makes bile, breaks fat Enzymes work out Breaking them down Pass the lips, pharynx Through esophagus Peristalsis In the stomach churned with digestive juices Into the small intestine Digestion Water, fiber Into large intestine Colon Water is absorbed into your bloodstream The semi-solid feces Out rectum, now Oh, oh Oh, oh Oh, oh Oh, oh Water, fiber Digest, it not Large intestine Is called colon Water absorbed Into bloodstream Feces is pushed Out the rectum Pass the lips, pharynx Through esophagus Peristalsis In the stomach churned with digestive juices Into the small intestine Digestion Water, fiber Into large intestine Colon Water is absorbed into your bloodstream The semi-solid feces Out rectum, now Oh, oh
