Training for Medical School in Ganon Aleph and Bet

The children in both Ganon classes have been learning all about the human body.  We talked about the heart, veins, and arteries, and used a latex glove filled with red water to demonstrate how the heart works.  The children took turns pumping the "heart" and watching the "blood" flow out.

When we discussed the digestive system, each child received a ziploc bag designed as the stomach.  The children then mashed together an assortment of foods and drinks in order to visualize what happens in the stomach.

As they learned about the different bodily systems, each child added the corresponding internal organs onto their body puppets.  The children in Ganon Aleph and Ganon Bet  have a greater appreciation of how our bodies work, and are now ready for medical school!!
