PYP Unit 1 – Who We Are
|
For inquiry, we
have started our major project for the unit. Students picked a superhero in
groups and will be analyzing their skeletal and muscular systems. Each group
will also be looking at 1 or 2 more body systems of their choice. For
example, the group that picked Dash
will also be looking at his respiratory system.
Each group is
working on a presentation to show what they have learned over the last few
weeks. They are allowed to present in any style they wish.
