Health
The purpose of third grade health is to stimulate the students' interest in health as they learn more about the body God has given them and how to care for it. Posture, exercise, nutrients, balanced diet, cleanliness, diseases, first aid, and the real you are the topics that we will cover.

On January 9, 2006 we had a visitor from the Generations Center come visit our classroom with "Dexter". Dexter is a model that has removable organs so we could get a better look at the organs that are involved in digestion.
On January 12,2005, Laurie from the Generations Center at Southeast Hospital came to our room with "Sam". Sam is her skeleton that she brings with her to help the students learn more about labeling their bones and being able to see where the bones are located in the body. Check out our pictures from her visit!
