Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 5
Why is the heart so important? What is a liver? How do the lungs work? We will talk about all of that, while focusing on identifying the organs.

Learn the basics about the human body. 
No prior knowledge is necessary. 

 IDENTIFYING ORGANS
We will be identifying organs and briefly learning what each organ does. I will be taking each organ out of a model and we will be looking at organs on slides. 
Example- Here is a heart. It pumps blood through your body. 

 HEART, BRAIN, LUNGS
I will take the heart, brain, and lungs out of our model, and go a little more in depth with their functions. 
We will talk about how the heart pumps blood, how the brain controls the body, how we breath with our lungs, and more.  We will look at slides and I will read a few pages from a book about how they work. 


STOMACH, LIVER, ESOPHAGUS,  INTESTINES, BLADDER, KIDNEYS
We will take a closer look at the organs in our digestive system. 
We will talk about how food travels through our bodies, and what each organ does to help. 
I will take the organs out of the model, and talk about them with slides and books 


FREE Worksheets, printable review sheets, and pages from class are available to print with purchase of class. The student doesn't need these for class, but they are encouraged to use them, and post their work in the classroom. You will have unlimited access to the teaching  videos, via the private YouTube link.  

This is a fun and upbeat class. You can watch the videos and complete your worksheets. 


All resources will be available on the first day of class. Lecture videos, review videos, downloadable worksheets, and scanned book pages. The classroom will be available to answer questions and talk with fellow students. I will be answering questions in the classroom, during the 4 weeks. Ask away!  You can continue to access the videos and other resources, anytime.  Feel free to message me with any further questions, after class. I'd love to answer them for you.
