Investigating the Human Body

My students need models to help them learn about the human body.

My Students

One of the best parts about my job is just how excited my students are to learn science, to do hands-on activities, do experiments, and to explore. I'm hoping that some folks out there will help to enhance my students' learning experience, and give them the opportunity to become scientists, explorers, learners, and creators.

As we begin to dive into the world of science and discovery, we are in need of a few things.

That's where you guys come in.

My Project

Soon, my 83 fifth graders and I will be diving into the world of science. This journey begins with exploring living organisms...which we, as humans, just happen to be a living organism. I hope to be able to provide a skeleton model, and a human torso model.

The skeleton model and torso model will help students to be able to actualize things that they can't really see.

Not being able to actually take a look inside a human body can make this a challenging subject. With a little help, we will really be able to see and explore the human body.
