Communication is an important skill for every one; we can communicate with friends through cell phones, emails, and text messaging... As we communicate with each other, our body communicates with itself through hormones. Hormones help our body know what to do. They are part of our body’s communication system- called the endocrine system. One of the most fascinating things about hormones is how incredibly specific they are. Concerning this topic, six graders have performed an activity that helps them learn more about how the hormones and receptor sites fit together like puzzle pieces. Students were divided into a group of hormones and a group of receptors. The hormones have to find their matching receptors, and the pair, once matched, performed a given action.
