Getting the inside view

Winfield Scott Elementary School students learn about muscles as they pass through the different stages in the Body Venture exhibit Wednesday afternoon. The display represents the human body in a 45-foot by 50-foot exhibit with different stages for the mouth, stomach, small intestine, heart, lungs, bones, muscle, skin and brain. The purpose of the exhibit is to teach children to "Eat Smart! Play Hard!" by explaining what each of the different areas does and how healthy eating and regular exercise benefits the body. The exhibit will be at Eugene Ware Elementary all day Thursday. (Michael Pommier/Tribune)
