New Unit- WHO WE ARE
Central Idea: The systems of the human body are affected by an Individual's lifestyle and choices.
Lines of Inquiry-
How the systems of the human body function
What a healthy lifestyle is
The habits and coping mechanisms of a healthy lifestyle
Students worked on demonstrating their knowledge about cells on Friday. I was impressed with their creativity and enthusiasm. There are 3-D models, models created using food, and more...
They will share their cell models on Monday!
The summative for this unit is for students to keep a health journal, reflect on their habits and identify an area they feel is important to leading a healthy lifestyle. They will conduct an inquiry into this healthy lifestyle choice and then present their findings to their peers.
Students are learning about all of the different systems of the human body.
*You will be receiving information from Ms. Sprague and our school nurse about how students will learn about the reproductive system of the body.
After conducting parent interviews, students created I Used to ... But Now I... Poems. These poems are insightful and heart touching. Check out the poetry on your child's blog and take a moment to leave a comment.
We have celebrated quite a few birthdays in the last two weeks- I was on a PYP School Evaluation visit so I was unable to capture pictures of the birthday kids but Happy Birthday to Nicole, Ellie, Kaiea, Katelyn & Kamalu!
