In the Classroom
Create riddles describing various body parts or systems using information from the site. Students take turns guessing and then locating that part or system on a diagram. Using the interactive diagrams on the site, students draw and label the major organs, then explain each organ's function in their own words. Pair students to explore both the English and Spanish versions of an article or video. They can identify and compare key terms, creating a mini glossary of science vocabulary in both languages.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
