My Project

Science inquiry is key to building young scientists and mathematicians. While digital tools have been a wonderful resource throughout the pandemic, students have missed out on many hands-on science explorations to foster critical thinking, along with visual and kinesthetic learning.

The dissection kits can help bridge this gap and allow my students to experience the science and the “why” behind the inner-workings of the systems that make up the whole body.

These dissection kits will enable students to explore various systems of the body using a hands-on approach. Dissecting frogs, earthworms, and a perch will help students visualize and connect understanding of specific organs and organ systems as they look at the structure and study the function of each part. Students will be able to see in a real-life example, how the systems interact as a whole in an organism. We teach students about the body being a system of interacting systems, but it is often a challenge for students to internalize this particular standard.

6.LS1.3 Use an argument supported by evidence for how the body is a system of interacting subsystems composed of groups of cells

Through the use of dissection kits, students will explore the systems and actually get to see and manipulate the parts throughout the dissection experience to see how the systems are connected and how they work together to function and enable life to exist.
