Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 100

Students were able to learn in multiple avenues about the body systems and created reports and projects using the resources that were granted to the classroom. 

 

Every student learns in different ways, so having reading materials, hands on models and study aids that they can color of the body, helped to improve their learning, assisted in testing scores as well as brought the learning to life. 

 

Working together in groups and even video chating with group members online, students were able to reseach and present findings to the class about the body, human diseases, blood types, and correctly identify anatomical areas of the body. 

 

Since these resources will be available in class for future students and for the next class in the program, these students and many others starting in the academy will be able to benefit from them for years to come.

Original Grant Overview

Goal

To provide anatomical models of multiple joints and reference charts of the body systems that will allow students to better understand their research and write medical style papers for competition 

 

What will be done with my students

Students will research and study specific joints learning about injuries, movements, and the anatomy that stops it from moving in specific directions. They will be able to see the cause and effect of the environment on the human body. They will present their findings to the class for peer review, and my hope is to eventually within the first full year of the medical academy to have them compete with other schools at the HOSA competitions state wide. These models and posters will be used for many years.  

 

Benefits to my students

Students will have a better understand of the anatomy of a joint. Hands on experience with the movements and functions of the joints as well as visually be able to differentiate where and what attaches to the bone.
Since these models will be a permanent fixture in the classroom, they will benefit over 100 plus students just this year, with the same number or more in the following years. It will also benefit any teachers that needs to demonstrate movement or the effects of illness or disease in their classroom. 

 

Budget Narrative

I have chosen the best cost effective options that had a majority of what was needed to be a better visual aide for the students.
