What educators are saying

I wanted a new resource to use with my Anatomy students after learning about the Senses. This was a fun resource. My students enjoyed the variety of stations and enjoyed all of the practical ways they were able to learn more about the senses!
My students enjoyed this activity. It was a great hands on way to review the senses, in a way that is age-appropriate for teenagers

Develop and use a model to illustrate the hierarchical organization of interacting systems that provide specific functions within multicellular organisms. Emphasis is on functions at the organism system level such as nutrient uptake, water delivery, and organism movement in response to neural stimuli. An example of an interacting system could be an artery depending on the proper function of elastic tissue and smooth muscle to regulate and deliver the proper amount of blood within the circulatory system. Assessment does not include interactions and functions at the molecular or chemical reaction level.
