In A Box Kits
Teachers, presenters, and group leaders who work with grades 4-8 can explore aspects of scientific careers, the body, and the environment through these self-contained “Exploration in Science and Health” kits from the In-A-Box program.
These kits were created by the Oregon Area Health Education Center (AHEC) and professionals at Oregon Health & Science University. The goal of each kit is to provide current health and science activities to inspire students about the possibilities of a career in science as well as a better understanding of their bodies and environment. Kits include Ear In-A-Box, Eye In-A-Box, Brain In-A-Box, Guts In-A-Box and Bones & Muscles In-A-Box. To view the contents of each kit, visit this website: http://www.inaboxcurriculum.net/
