A great continuation into anatomy!
This course is a great continuation from the Anatomy and physiology 1 course for high schoolers. This set goes through the digestive system/metabolism, the reproductive system, and finally special systems. Worksheets are vocabulary, fill in the blanks and labeling of parts. At the end of each unit there is a quiz, every 2 quizzes there seems to be a test. The course book is very colorful and appealing to my high schooler, They use lots of charts, pictures and diagrams to get a lot of information into a chapter. I am very impressed with this course, and was actually more interested in this one over the first volume because it included the reproductive system. It can be very challenging to find the reproductive system taught tastefully and from a christian worldview. I was very pleased with how this unit was tackled, always pointing to Gods design, and giving students the facts in a mature manner.
