TABmom Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 At the last minute, I was asked to switch from teaching K-2 and 3rd-5th to teaching 3rd-5th and 6th-8th at co-op. It's just enrichment-type things, not covering all the material, just doing some projects/activities that parents might not want to deal with at home. All of the resources I have are geared much younger. Anyone have any great suggestions? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcadia Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 My kids have used some of these freebies from Ellen McHenry http://www.ellenjmchenry.com/homeschool-freedownloads/lifesciences-games/humanbody.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amateur Actress Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Guest Hollow has anatomy curriculum for 3rd-8th grades (also K-2 and high school). http://www.guesthollow.com/homeschool/science/anatomy_jr/jr_anatomy_curriculum.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cintinative Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 (edited) We did a class a few years back for younger folks. I think using the Guest Hollow curriculum as your spine of subjects to cover makes sense. A few thoughts for places to check Magic School Bus classroom activities here: http://www.scholastic.com/magicschoolbus/parentteacher/activities/index.htm (look for human body category) American Chemistry Society (there are a few links on this page under "your body" that link to several activities each) https://www.acs.org/content/acs/en/education/resources/k-8/science-activities.html Pinterest (there is tons on there) Janice VanCleave's Human Body for every kid (I own this but have never looked at it!)

Abeilles Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 I just found this series for science on Amazon and it looks good - https://www.amazon.com/Human-Body-Grades-5-8-Reproducible/dp/0880128275/ref=pd_sim_14_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=AF6NRM7Q1MVJSNT8WTMQ - 100+ reproducible activities - Human Body. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
