Welcome 3rd Grade Scientists!

 

You are here to learn as much as you can about the body system that you have been assigned.  As you research and take notes on your subject, look for important and interesting facts that you think the other people in your class should learn.  You are going to create a presentation from your notes for your classmates. You will be the teacher!
