GARNETT — Garnett elementary students will get into their lessons on good nutrition and physical fitness Tuesday. Really. They will become “food” and get digested by the body as part of the body venture exhibit. They will walk through the Kansas Department of Education exhibit, which includes stations in the brain, mouth, the esophagus tunnel, stomach and the small intestine. They are then absorbed into the blood and follow the path of the nutrients to the heart, lungs, bones, muscles and skin stations. Students leave the body through a cut in the skin.
