What's included
Homework
1 hour per week. Each week, learners will complete a quiz at the end of each lesson to ensure every child is on track with the material. In addition to weekly quizzes, there will be weekly activities and experiments (such as recreating the skeletal system out of pasta) that are designed to supplement learners’ knowledge of each of the systems.Class Experience
US Grade 2 - 5
This introductory class will go over five of the main body systems (the skeletal system, the circulatory system, the respiratory system, the nervous system, and the digestive system). A life-size anatomical figure (Mr. Bob) will be used in many of the classes as an extra visual guide for the learners. Each week, one system will be covered in each class, and learners will get the chance to participate hands-on, through unique crafts and experiments. These are designed to further supplement learners with knowledge and understanding about each system, and the important role they each have for our health and wellbeing. The learners will share their crafts with the class each week on Flipgrid. When the learners do experiments, they will be sharing what the outcome of the experiment was, or they can film themselves actually doing the experiment and share it with the class! The weekly lessons will be prerecorded and will be viewed using Nearpod. After each weekly video lesson, the learners will have a short quiz to compete, to ensure that they fully understood the lesson. Weekly Schedule Week 1: The Skeletal System Week 2: The Muscular System Week 3: The Respiratory System Week 4: The Circulatory System Week 5: The Digestive System No prerequisite is required, this course is designed to introduce body systems to learners.
