While it isn't my favorite, Elemental Biology for the Grammar stage has part of the year focused on anatomy and that was my favorite part of that curriculum.

 

My new favorite was an anatomy curriculum that I got in the bundle sale. It is really great and I plan to use it with my kids that are around that same age. I am drawing a blank on the title right now but I will check in a bit. Maybe someone else got it and can recall too.

 

Also the Super Smart Science Series has an anatomy and physiology workbook and more specific ones like neurobiology. They are great! We haven't used them yet but I have seen them. They seem reasonably priced and well done.

Quark Chronicles is a great way to organize an Anatomy curriculum for that age, if they are at all lovers of read alouds! Very engaging. You can round out an entire curriculum using the Quark Chronicles Notebooking pages that have additional resources scheduled. For 2nd and 3rd you don't need to use the experiment pages. Those are more fort older students for weeks where a parent may want to schedule experiments. Lots of engaging complimenting resources are suggested for younger kiddos. We've loved using Quark.

We did the My Body Book (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1557342113/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1497812748&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=my+body+book) models this year with 2nd & 3rd and it was a huge hit. It was simple and at their level. I added library books for each organ/system (Seymour Simon is great) and we read the corresponding pages in the DK Human Body Encyclopedia (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0756609976/ref=pd_aw_sbs_14_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=0D4FZ1J61Y7HH1BJRXH4&dpPl=1&dpID=51ifDmNKfxL) and a anatomy colouring book (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0486468216/ref=pd_aw_sbs_14_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=VXTGX9C4N65VRE4QR6YR&dpPl=1&dpID=91QPDM4b%2B6L). It was relaxed and they learned quite a bit.
