Description

Exactly what was needed in the Apologia elementary science scope and sequence the Human Body. We waited awhile for this, but it was worth the wait (as we knew it would be). Continuing their pattern of in-depth studies, exciting information, engaging activities, and biblical worldview, this latest course examines the body systems skeletal, muscular, respiratory, digestive, cardiovascular, nervous along with nutrition, health, embryology, the immune system, and the major organs. It also provides a brief history of medicine and an introduction to cell structure and DNA. Activities within the fourteen lessons include finding blood type, making a cell model, and building a skeleton. Oh! And be prepared! Your student will be looking for household bacteria. ~ Janice

Publisher's Description of Exploring Creation with Human Anatomy and Physiology

From the brain in your head to the nails on your toes, you and your students will encounter fascinating facts, engaging activities, intriguing experiments, and loads of fun as you learn about the human body and how to keep it working well. Beginning with a brief history of medicine and a peek into cells and DNA, your students will voyage through fourteen lessons covering many subjects, such as the body systems: skeletal, muscular, respiratory, digestive, cardiovascular, nervous and more! They'll study nutrition and health, how God designed their immune system to protect them, along with embryology and what makes them a unique creation of God. As they work their way through the course, your students will enjoy adding the organs about which they learn to their own personalized human figure to be placed in their course notebook. In addition to all this exploration, your students will enjoy scientific experiments and projects, such as testing the bacteria content around the house, finding their blood type, creating a cell model from Jello and candy, and even building a stethoscope! In keeping with the other books in the Apologia elementary science Young Explorer Series, the Charlotte Mason methodology is employed with engaging narratives, narration prompts and notebooking projects, all of which reinforce their learning using proven techniques that strengthen retention. Covering the body systems: skeletal, muscular, respiratory, digestive, cardiovascular, nervous and more!

For younger students or reluctant writers, Junior Notebooking Journal require less handwriting and provide more coloring pages. The labs and activities in the course primarily utilize household supplies, but if you’d rather not gather them yourself, the Lab Kit (packaged by Nature’s Workshop) provides most of the supplies.~ Janice

Excellent Science Program
This is an excellent science course. I have used other elementary Apologia Science courses and loved them as well. This is a solid creation based science program. My children enjoy these books, and they are easy to use. They have great activities and experiments that make learning science fun. We use the note booking journal with the textbook.

I wish we could do them all.
All of the Apologia science books for elementary look interesting. I wish we had started sooner because she will not be able to do them all by the time she move into 7th grade. This one is no exception to what we have found with the others in this series. Anatomy and Physiology is thorough, but not boring, full of facts, but written in a style that holds our interest. The activities reinforce review and the creation confirmation section is our favorite part of the chapters. I recommend getting the lab kit.

Exploring Creation with Human Anatomy and Physiology.
We are loving our study of anatomy and physiology! I love that it talks about our growth in the womb without getting into the specifics of how babies are conceived. With our boys 9 years old, the ins and outs of the reproduction system is more advanced than we are ready to explore. They love learning about how their bodies work and all the inside organs that make them up.

We are using this for our 10 & 11 year-old son and daughter. We enjoy teaching the content, and the kids are challenged enough by it, and they enjoy the lessons.
