In Mrs. Hopper’s Principles of Health Science class, students learned about different types of wounds. They participated in a fun activity called “Build the Wound,” during which they used clay to create a specific type of wound. Each student identified and named their assigned wound, researched its characteristics and treatment, and then presented their findings to the class. This hands-on, tactile lesson helped students better understand how to identify wounds and provide proper care, making the learning experience both interactive and engaging.

Clockwise from top left: a laceration with greenish pus, a round puncture wound surrounded by deep purple bruising, an open ulcerated wound with raw red tissue, and a long incision neatly held together with blue surgical sutures.

Hands holding two clay models created by health science students to simulate trauma wounds, including a clay hand with lacerations and an oval clay model showing a deep open wound with exposed red tissue.

A close-up of a hands-on classroom project showing a flat piece of beige clay sculpted to look like a deep skin wound. The center features a long, textured laceration filled with realistic dark red faux blood, with multiple streaks of blood dripping vertically down the clay surface.
