The Digestive and Renal Systems Week four

Because we regularly work with a GI doctor at BC Children's Hospital this unit was fascinating for the kids. It helped us all understand how each little system works.  We took a measuring tape and measured out 20 feet, it was amazing to think something that long fits inside you. 

Digestion Theme Park
Our Friday project this week was to design a digestion theme park. On a piece of paper they had to write down all the different organs of the digestive system. Then on separate sheet of paper brainstorm each attraction and what it will look like. 
Using construction paper they began building the theme park. 





A few more photos from our school week. 

On the first day of autumn my middles and littles painted fall trees using TP rolls. 
They turned out super cute!

Autumn Leaf Mandala - "When finished, collect leaves in a basket, and ceremoniously release into moving water or back into nature. This reminds us of the sweet impermanence of life and the joy of letting go." 
                         
                       For baby school we are going through all our colours while we have a bath.
Seamus mimic's "boo baff" and "wed baff"  we are also signing the colours for Henry as well. Two is one of my favourite ages. Everyday they are learning something new or saying something new. It's just too much fun! Ahh twins!
