For the last few weeks at school, Zoe has been hard at work on a health unit — and as part of it, she and her classmates got to play ER doctor for a day. (She’s examining a mom-patient below.) From our school’s newsletter:<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153The students started the year exploring electricity and magnetism,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d says teacher David Starfas. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153They were then introduced to the concept of circuits and systems. Using this background knowledge of electrical systems, we moved into studying the systems of the body.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d As they prepare for their Health Fair… fourth graders welcomed special guest (and Brandeis parent) Mary Fox, an ER physician, to give the students a taste of what an ER doctor does. Parents posed as \u00e2\u20ac\u0153patients\u00e2\u20ac\u009d needing neurologic, cardiac, pulmonary, or extremity exams. The students\u00e2\u20ac\u201dor in this case, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153doctors\u00e2\u20ac\u009d\u00e2\u20ac\u201dwere tasked with formulating diagnoses by ordering some basic tests: CAT scan of the brain, EKG, chest X-ray, and X-ray of the extremities.<\/p>\n

Adds Mr. Starfas, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Mary gave us a great introduction to what she does in the emergency room and how to diagnose a patient.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
