We will try to cover major body systems except the reproductive system but the schedule is tentative. I want to make sure we leave time to focus on things the students really enjoy.

What is a disclosing tablet? Melynn will be absent on Week2. I will talk with you about the picture, but if I forget, please remind me.
They color plaque. Dentists use them to teach people how to brush. I thought the kids would get a kick out of it, if I can find them in time. As for the pictures, the kids will be using them to add a head to a human form we will be adding the systems to as we learn about them. We will add the first system week 2 or 3. Melynn can bring her picture when you get back.
