Events

During the summer, MedPals was invited by a Greenville Council Member to facilitate fun and interactive activities for elementary students. Kids built their own styrofoam skin models, UV light bracelets, and learned about germs and various organ systems! 

In out last event of the school year, we taught Welcome Middle's entire 7th grade wrapping up their units in two engaging exercises using our EKG machines and stethoscopes along with a skeletal model demonstration!

At our third event on Feb 27th, in addition to our normal interactive stations, we began to establish a home base school where we plan to implement tutoring and mentoring visits in the future.

We were invited to demonstrate our innovative demos and stations with High School students at Brody Rise where students are invited to the Brody School of Medicine to get an intro into medicine.

MedPals visited Eppes Middle on Jan 18th and 19thth teaching the entire 6th grade science class with multiple activities: an interactive virtual microscope for anatomy, a respiration demo, chemistry model kit explaining glycolysis, and an EKG station. All of the activities corresponded with what students were currently learning and interweaved with each other on the topics of glycolysis!

In our first event, MedPals visited South Central High School on Jan 5th and worked with Honors Biology and Physiology classes. We worked through interactive immune system, DNA mutations, and DNA technology stations with the biology students. With Physiology we worked through the Cardiovascular, Skeletal, Integumental, and Muscular experiments.
