Alpha Students Make Blood
Tuesday, May 12, 2009
With their blood are Lucas, Logan, Molly, Colton, Hannah and Carter.

To go along with their human body unit, students in Shondra Cody's third grade class at Alpha made "blood."  Students learned that their blood is made up of plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.  They also learned about the jobs that each one of these parts has. 

 With their blood are Lucas, Logan, Molly, Colton, Hannah and Carter.

The ingredients for the "blood" are as follows:  corn syrup for the plasma, candy red hots for the red blood cells, white jelly beans for the white blood cells, and candy sprinkles for the platelets.
