🫀🧠🦴 Human Body Unit Wrap-Up! 💀

Last year, I started doing a fun wrap-up day at the end of our Human Body Unit, and this year I was able to expand it even more with the help of some amazing parent volunteers. It was such a HUGE success, and I just had to share it! ❤️

😷 We dressed up as doctors and examined Barry Bones (our class skeleton), listened to each other’s heartbeats, and gave check-ups to our favorite stuffed animals.

🫁 We created our own human bodies, complete with all the major organs.

🩻 We made a 1st-grade-sized, full-body skeleton!

🧠 We created the nervous system using Play-Doh brains and pipe-cleaner nerves.

🪥🦷 We learned how to properly care for our teeth, and each child received a toothbrush and toothpaste, thanks to Colgate!

🦴 We played Operation and practiced our skills while having lots of fun.

💀 We used our fine motor skills to see how high we could stack eyeballs and skulls!

I absolutely LOVE seeing how excited the kids get when learning about the human body. If you see my students, ask them about bones, muscles, the digestive system, or the nervous system… but be prepared, because they may never stop talking about it! 😂❤️

A huge thank you to our amazing parent volunteers for helping make this special day such a success! 🐯💙💛 - Mrs. Brown

💙💛 Help Us Create a Staff Wellness Lounge! 🐯

Our Wellness Committee is working on creating a more comfortable and inviting space where St. David staff can take a break, recharge, and enjoy a little downtime during the school day.

We’re looking for a comfortable sofa in good condition to help get the project started! If you have a sofa you’d like to donate, please contact the school office.

We’re excited to give our staff break room a little refresh and create a space our staff can enjoy! 💙💛
