KG Share their New Learning about the Human Body

Mr. Lewis's class finished their guided inquiry on the human body and shared their new learning with some pre-k students.  It was exciting to see how quickly the kindergartners partnered up with a younger student and dove straight into explaining their models about the human body. I overheard one student saying, "You see the lungs are here [pointing to a printed picture of internal human anatomy] and here they are in my model too."  Students also shared how the sides of the brain control the opposite side of the body.  Other students explained how veins take blood back to the heart.

Mr. Lewis's students were very proud to be able to teach the pre-k kids and demonstrate how they had become experts about what is inside their bodies.

Here is a short video of their inquiry.
