After two months of teaching human
anatomy class, Mr. Guerrero Angel, the substitute for the incoming teacher,
held a small farewell party with the seniors in B block, cherishing the two
months of happy memories.
Due to the absence of the incoming
teacher, Mr. Riffey, who was supposed to be teaching the class, Mr. Guerrero
substituted to teach in these two blocks of Human Anatomy.
Ever since Mr. Guerrero became a
substitute for this class, the students, composed of all seniors, had
experienced attentive and enjoyable class learning environments through
intriguing laboratories and activities.
A vibrant, relaxed class environment
and atmosphere have been created through having class activities such as
sunscreen lab comparing the level of skin protection of each different
sunscreen brand, a "skincare" activity trying out a facial mask and
blackhead packs and review games helping the students to learn and prepare for
upcoming tests.
As Sean Park (12) says, “One of the
activities I enjoyed the most in Human Anatomy so far was whenever we played
Kahoot as a class. I liked how competitive everyone was to be in the first
place. High intensity made the Kahoot more interesting. Also we not only
reviewed through Kahoot, but we were able to learn new things because some of
the questions were unexpected, such as questions on concepts we never learned.
But those questions helped me to get a better understanding of Human Anatomy as
a whole. In the end, it was worth it.”
Moreover, the seniors got to have
exposure to intriguing facts and knowledge about the human body parts, bones,
and skin. Most importantly, these labs and activities further brought greater
joy and motivation for seniors to learn better.
An unforgettable moment of playing fun
games in the last few minutes of each class, such as musical chairs, heads up,
seven up, mafia, and Kahoot quizzes about Disney music, helped the B block
seniors and señor, Mr. Guerrero, to bond
stronger. Through this, the seniors were able to spend a good first two months
of the senior year learning the human body in various ways while also making
good memories.
On the 9th of October, the last day
before fall break, the B block class held a small farewell party for their
"angelic" teacher, Mr. Guerrero, as means to show their gratitude and
appreciation for the previous two months of teaching. With a board written
'goodbye Mr. Guerrero', two small firecrackers, Dorothy Koay’s (12) baked
chocolate chip cookies, and a bag of pretzels, the seniors and Mr. Geurerro
spent the last day of class playing games cherishing the memories.
When the last minute of class left, with a class group hug, the seniors ended the last class with their angelic teacher, Mr. Angel Guerrero.
