US Grade 3 - 6
This self-paced course provides an introduction to all different parts of your head! Each week will include a recorded lesson covering similar material to the live version with adjustments for the format. In my recorded video lessons, I will lead students through written work to post in the classroom. Students and I will interact regularly in the classroom. Students will submit photographs of their work and answer 1-2 prompts per week (related to class material and getting-to-know-you). They should also reply to their fellow classmates. I will refer to these classroom interaction expectations during the recorded video lessons to make sure students are aware of the ways to participate. Each week will also include a link to a video to extend the learning and will have a related classroom discussion question. Please see the syllabus for more details about each lesson!

As a family physician with a decade in private practice, I love teaching young people about how their bodies work. I believe that people who understand their bodies will take better care of them. Reviews
