Grade 5

Brainy Fifth Graders

by Ibu Ratna Putri

After a bit of introduction about how people learn differently a few days earlier, the fifth graders received a surprise in the Senior School's biology laboratory. Entering the lab, they were given a lab jacket to wear. On each lab table, there was something that they faintly recognized from pictures they may have seen earlier. A brain!

"Is this a human brain?" a student asked, making the teachers smile from ear to ear. Well, the students have a cow-brain dissection on that day! They learned different dissection tools and how to use them. Working together in small groups, the fifth graders dissected the cow brain to see and label parts of the brain. Enjoy some snapshots of their brainy time in the biology lab!
