| Impact Report | Organ Wise (Teaching you about being smart from the inside out!) Chee Dodge and Lincoln Elementary have agreed to pilot the Organ Wise curriculum in the Spring of 2009. 135 kindergarten-2nd grade students began the program with an Organ Wise Assembly on February 12, 2009 for Chee Dodge and February 13, 2009 at Lincoln Elementary. The curriculum was presented by the classroom teacher on a weekly basis. The student learned how their organs work and what they provide for the body. The kits provided all materials, student workbooks, educational tools and the puppets for the lesson introductions. Students learned about healthy foods, high-fiber/low fat foods, the importance of fruits and vegetables, identify responsible health behaviors and how to help your body stay healthy. Teachers and students claimed that the curriculum was a great way to teach about the body functions. The students completed the program in May of 2009 and celebrated by sharing what they learned in a school wide assembly. |
