High School Anatomy Students Share Digestive System Books with Roosevelt 3rd Graders
Roosevelt Elementary was abuzz with excitement today as Mr. Dobitz’s Human Anatomy class visited Mrs. Abrahamson’s 3rd-grade classroom to present their Digestive System children’s books. This annual collaboration, now in its fifth year, continues to grow in quality and creativity, becoming a highlight for both high school and elementary students alike.
This project aligns seamlessly with Dickinson’s new CKLA reading series, particularly the 3rd-grade unit on Human Body Systems and Senses. The high schoolers put significant effort into creating engaging and educational materials, utilizing a variety of formats, including traditional paper books, digital presentations on Canvas, and interactive PowerPoints.
“This is such a valuable experience for everyone involved,” said Mrs. Abrahamson. “Our 3rd graders love learning from the high school students, and the older kids get to showcase their knowledge and creativity. It’s a win-win!”
The event demonstrated not only the students’ hard work but also the effective integration of technology and cross-age collaboration in education. Both groups are already looking forward to next year’s event!
