WB 22 Medicine Resource ~Brain

Today the older students continued on the study of the Brain.

I wrote Dominic's assignment in his notebook for him to work on his project. He has a notebook like Daniel but for older students so we added the mini-booklets, anatomy coloring pages, & picture to the notebook.

I scheduled to dissect a sheep's brain today but my husband threw it away by accident so we watched a virtual sheep dissection online. http://www.exploratorium.edu/memory/braindissection/1.html .I plan to order another brain from Tobin's Lab so they can see everything first hand. We also had fun using this site where we read scans just like a doctor. http://www.insidestory.iop.org/insidestory_flash1.html Apologia just came out with a new book for elementary students. I purchased this on sale. It arrived today and its perfect for the Medicine Resource :O) I plan to begin to use it right away starting with the Brain.I will use it like an elementary encyclopedia instead of curriculim.

There is an Apologia sale right now if you missed the CBD sale at http://www.timberdoodle.com/Apologia_Science_s/373.htm

My elementary students worked on their Astronomy notebook today. There is a few projects we need to finish up to have a completed notebook.
