Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 5
In this fun and interactive human anatomy and biology class, learners will be introduced to a different body part each week. Every session will begin with a discussion on what learners already know about that body part—its function, location, and role in the body. I'll then use a slide show presentation to provide a brief but informative lesson, highlighting how each body part helps us adapt to the world around us. Expect to learn wacky facts to make the class engaging and memorable!

At the end of each class, we’ll wrap up with a brief true/false quiz to reinforce what we've learned. This introductory biology class requires no prior knowledge, making it perfect for beginners or anyone curious about the human body. All learning styles are welcomed! Whether your learner prefers to speak up or simply listen, we aim to create an open and comfortable atmosphere. Participation is always encouraged, but no one will be called on unless they want to speak.

Weekly topics are listed below, and I’m happy to adjust lessons based on learner interest. If there’s a specific body part your learner wants to explore, feel free to let me know, and I’ll include it in the schedule!
