My Students

Welcome to my classroom; dull moments are few and far between in a high school anatomy class. Don't let the noise level fool you; my students are busy learning the names, location and function of every body system.

Many of my students have dreams of continuing their education to become professionals in the medical field.

However, if these dreams come true it will be by overcoming difficulties others cannot even imagine. Unfortunately, for some of my students the world is very difficult, a world full of uncertainties and hardships. However, if my students continue in school, they will graduate and may be the first in their family to do so.

My Project

This model goes beyond what any paper, video, or textbook can do. This model even surpass' computer-generated models, giving students hands-on experience. The human torso model offers both visual and kinesthetic learners a realistic representation of the human body. This detailed, color-coded model will aide the students in their studies. Students will be able to study each system independently, gaining a comprehensive understanding of the human body.

This detailed model will be used throughout the school year in Anatomy and Physiology, beginning with the reproductive system, skeletal, muscular, cardiovascular, digestive, respiratory, excretory, endocrine, and nervous systems.

This model will offer hands-on experience in learning and understanding the complexity of the human body.
