“Even though my students are an older age, the exhibits and hands on activities were invaluable. When they were able to take specific organs and place them into a body, it gave them a more realistic sense of our body parts. Being in the radio booth from Canada was especially beneficial as this year we have pen pals from a school in Canada and have studied Canada.”
