1st grade wrapped up their unit on the human body by becoming doctors for the afternoon! They were able to explore x-rays, body system puzzles, and stretchy organs. They used light to x-ray words, and of course they had to play a classic game of Operation. Special thanks to our big kid friends (and Mrs. Tay) who kept our stations running smoothly.
