Homework 6/21 and Human Body Student Diagrams #1

Hello Everyone,
Please remember to wear sneakers tomorrow.  Also:  Bring a bottle of water with you, because you will get thirsty outside.  Please pass the word along to those who do not follow the blog.  Thank you!

On another note, here is the first installment of student-created human body diagrams for you to enjoy.  I was so impressed by how hard everyone worked and by the quality of work that was produced.  Way to go!

JFK Museum Pictures







JFK Museum was a success!

We had a great time at the JFK museum today.  I think that everyone learned a lot, and the site of the museum building itself was just beautiful.  I also want to say how proud I am of all of you.  You were all very well behaved, very mature, and I am proud to be your teacher.   Pictures will be posted soon.

Homework 6/16

I am looking forward to our trip to the JFK Museum tomorrow.   Please remember to bring your lunch tomorrow, if you didn't ask for a school lunch. 

We are almost finished our human body diagrams.  Friday will be the last day to work on them in class and they must be completed on this day.  If you were absent today, make sure that you talk to your group members to see what you missed and what they would like you to do as part of the project.

There is no homework tonight, but as I said in class today, if  you have a spare moment, try the the "Build a Digestive System" activity to be found at the Canadian Museum of Nature website.
