PRESENT CONTINUOUS GAMES


DIGESTIVE SYSTEM


THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM

It breaks food we eat into smaller molecules that our body can absorb. The stomach and the intestines are organs of the digestive system.

There are 3 stages in the digestive process:
  • DIGESTION: it is the set of changes to food as it travels along the digestive tract. The objective is to transform food into nutrients.
  • ABSORPTION: in the absorption stage the nutrients pass to the blood through capillaries which are found in the villi in the small intestine walls.
  • EXCRETION: the final stage of the digestive process includes the preperation and elimination of the part of our food that our body does not need.



Let's see how food travels inside your body

 subject + verb to be + verb -ing 



Now you have another explanation of present continuous in order to make things easier.



And here, there are some games to have a little fun
