Inside and Out Week 6 Day 3

We only had three campers today!!! First, I talked about various cells in the body with all kinds of different jobs. Then we looked at the different parts of an animal cell and made animal cell cookies adding each part as we talked about it. For example, Nucleus was a large golden sprinkle and Golgi Bodies were long chocolate sprinkles, and so forth. While eating their cookie, we discussed how these different parts acted similar to parts of a city. Then we looked at the digestive system and I showed a model with the length of each part. With the most surprising being the small intestines (13-20 feet long). Next we discussed the Circulatory System as they colored in arteries and veins in their Human Body books. After that, they took a snack break and played at the obstacle course. Next we discussed the Respiratory System and I showed them a model of the lung. Lastly, they had lunch, played at the creek. Since there were only 3 campers we explored further down the creek and found white clay and lots of fish as well as crawfish claws!
