Guest Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Our co-op is thinking about doing Apologia Anatomy next year. How does this book work for K/1st age? It seems like it's better for older kids - should I attempt it, or should I try to pull together a younger anatomy/body class? I've seen the Jr. Notebook samples online, but it looks like a lot of writing for K'ers....thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crafty Mathy Mom Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 We are using Apologia's Anatomy this year. In my opinion, the book is geared toward upper elementary grades. I've been reading the lessons aloud. My sixth grader enjoys the book and the notebooking journal. Most of the information goes over my first grader's head. He enjoys the activities though. I haven't looked at the Jr. Notebook, but if it involves a lot of writing, my son wouldn't enjoy it at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Thanks, that's kind of what I was thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twoxcell Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I would find something else for that age group especially in a co-op setting. I don't see K-1st listening with distractions around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliya Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Definitely for older elem. But I do have it, so c'mon over and take a look at it anytime you want. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiramisu Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 I'm using it in a coop with 4th-6th graders. Even the moms of some of the younger kids in the group who were initially worried if it would be too difficult have been pleased with how their dc have been doing with the text. It's a big hit. I tried to have my third grader work along with us at home but it didn't keep her interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnllj7 Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 We are using the anatomy with 5-6th grade in our Co-Op this coming year. We will use the regular notebook, and not the Jr. Notebook. It is great program, but I think it would be hard for younger elementary. nancyt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Running the race Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 My daughter is doing this in class this year. I would say it is definitely upper elementary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
