Our last week for this class is on May 2, 2023.  At that point, every session of this class will be replaced by the new version: https://outschool.com/classes/dr-robin-wrote-you-an-anatomy-coloring-book-body-systems-and-how-doctors-think-6FBDdm5o
-->If you wanted to still work in this book, you can schedule a private session instead:

About the Class:
-In this ongoing class, we will work through Human Anatomy Coloring Book by Margaret Matt.
-Each week we will color one page and discuss the topic in more detail to help it come alive and be more memorable to the students.
-My teaching week runs Monday to Sunday (so on Sunday, I'm covering the same topic as I was the week previous and change to a new topic on Monday).

Class Details
-I will use models or videos as appropriate to the topic and we will also review the areas on our own bodies when possible so that students will have a "model" they can take with them wherever they go.
-I will discuss some physiology or medical stories to help the areas discussed be more meaningful in the larger context.
-As a physician, I'm able to provide more a personal and tailored context for the students.
-We are not doing the book strictly in order as I think certain topics make more sense in a different order.
-The classes are each stand alone and do not build on each other, but your student will get a more complete understanding of the human body by attending every week.
-When we finish the book, I'll start back at the beginning so that your student can finish their own book.

END OF CLASS

note: once we've made it through the entire book (except reproductive and any other pages I decide to skip), we'll start over and do it all again--students are welcome to repeat or change to one of my other classes; I may switch the times of different classes so the times may not be the same in the summer, fall, etc.

Other Details

Parental Guidance
Nothing in this class will be or is intended to be medical advice. This is merely educational in nature and will be a surface-level overview. Your student will not be coming out of this class knowing anything about how to diagnose or treat any conditions and we will not be discussing any personal medical questions/needs. Students should come with general questions about the topic.
Supply List
Every student will need a copy of Human Anatomy Coloring Book: an Entertaining and Instructive Guide to the Human Body - Bones, Muscles, Blood, Nerves and How They Work by Margaret Matt. This is currently $3.86 USD on Amazon (https://smile.amazon.com/Human-Anatomy-Coloring-Childrens-Science/dp/0486241386/)

Colored pencils and a pencil sharpener will be necessary--do not use markers or pens as they will bleed through the pages

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.
