Sobre IBD

In the leveled reader How Your Body Runs Faster, fundamental concepts in Exercise Science are explained through easily understood text and colorful, fun illustrations and photographs. Strong muscles help you run faster, and exercising will make your muscles stronger. Eating healthy food gives your body the fuel needed to run, jump, and play, and warming up before running gets your muscles ready to do work and helps prevent injuries. Practicing helps your lungs breathe more air and helps improve your speed. Run uphill to make your legs stronger and downhill to practice speed. Setting goals can help you get faster too: for example, deciding how many days a week you will run and how far you will run. A stopwatch can be used to record your speed.Includes a pronunciation guide for scientific terms. 24 pages. Reading Level 1-3, Interest Level 2-5.
