Over the last few years we have explored elementary science with Apologia studies. This year my elementary-aged children are excited about Exploring Creation with Anatomy and Physiology.

Exploring Creation with Human Anatomy and Physiology
The Young Explorers series offers a Charlotte Mason approach. The textbooks in the Young Explorer series, like this Anatomy and Physiology, have these components:
- Lessons
- Narration
- Notebooks
- Projects
- Experiments
Which also includes:
- Instructions for the teacher and a suggested schedule (e.g., a two week schedule for each lesson: reading and notebook assignments during the first week and the experiments and data recording during the second week).
- Gorgeous photographs of human anatomy plus diagrams and more – with interesting facts in the captions
- Prompts for the student to complete the accompanying notebook pages
- What do you remember? discussion questions
- Suggested project or experiment
This text uses an immersion approach. “A child that has focuses on one subject throughout an entire year is being challenged mentally in ways that will develop his ability to think critically and retain complex information.”
Anatomy and Physiology Notebooking Journal
Anatomy and Physiology Notebooking Journal- Oh this makes it so nice for the teacher! All the pages are in one spot. This is a spiral bound notebooking journal.
- The contents follow along the studies of the textbook.
- Take it with you in the car, pull it out at the kitchen table.
- My 3rd grade son appreciates the Jr. Notebooking Journal – just enough writing for him. Not too much!
Make a pocket for your menus with the notebooking journal section on nutrition.
- Bible verses on all coloring pages.
- Pre-lined notebooking pages.
- Vocabulary crossword puzzles.
- Directions for anatomy and physiology projects including lapbooks, mini books.
- Scientific speculation sheets, final review questions and more!

How We Use Apologia’s Anatomy and Physiology in our Homeschool
With 14 lessons in Anatomy and Physiology, most can be divided into two week segments. I have found that I can be very flexible with these resources. We use them for: Read Aloud Time – we have a good habit going of spending some time just after lunch when I read aloud the text and the children work on their notebooking journals. Independent Reading – my fifth grader can pull the textbook off the shelf and read her lesson – and even sometimes read aloud to her brother while I clean up lunch dishes.
