Anatomy AcademyTeacher: Colleen Williams
What is your body made of? How do its parts work together? Let’s explore the answers using experiments, models, and hands-on fun to learn about our anatomy and physiology! This class will do more than just covering the basic body systems - this class will explore big questions like: How do vocal chords work? Do muscles really have memory? How strong is our hair? Why do our eyes need pupils? And so much more? Send your curious kiddo to join us for some non-gross experiments and activities all about our UNIQUE, AMAZING and sometimes STRANGE human body!
