This afternoon I spent time in the 5th grade classrooms as they worked on culminating projects about the human body systems. It was wonderful to see the students applying the knowledge they learned in this unit to real world problems and situations. From how Michael Phelps uses the various systems during a race, to how the systems are impacted when riddled with disease, these projects allowed for students to get passionate about science! I can't wait to see what exciting things are in store for the next unit.
