A Visit to the Somerset Surgery Center - Week 6

This week our teacher Debra is teaching Anatomy and Surgical Techniques. Since this is a popular class, the room is jammed pack with students, surgical equipment, and tons of fun! The students are learning valuable information on different parts of the body.
Today, campers learned all about the brain and even made a brain hat. Following break, students began their first dissection of the week - a sheep's brain! They are having a great time working towards successfully completing their first dissection. As the week goes on, we know our students will continue to have a lot of fun doing hands-on surgeries!

Rain can't stop Short Hills campers from having fun! We couldn't go outside for morning break today, so we went to the gym and played a silly game called Ship-Shore. Who needs the sun?
