Each week we will explore a different body system. 
There will be:
* a fine motor skills coordinating craft each week presented by the teacher. 
Students can show their projects as we go along to inspire others and build self-confidence. 
The teacher will demonstrate the craft step by step with plenty of room for the children to add their own creative touches. 
* weekly optional after class activities for children to increase their body system knowledge on their own. There will be a fun, interactive Nearpod lesson link with 3D models of the human body system and activities as well as printable activity sheets posted to the classroom. It is another fun, engaging lesson kids can do on their own at a convenient time. 
* Each student will receive a printable Certificate of Completion sent to their own classroom message board on the last day of class.

During class, the teacher will narrate and share an interactive slideshow presentation that includes short video clips to enhance understanding.
