Precepts of Anatomy & Physiology by PAC high school science

Today all of our Science came in so I will be blogging about science in the next few days. Today I will start with our high-school science. We will be using PAC or Paradigm Accelerated Curriculum www.pacworks.com . 

I love that this curriculum is in booklet form. It has vocabulary words to read before the lesson,diagrams, worksheets, quizzes, & tests. The main reason I choose this curriculum however is there is no math like Algebra or other science courses required before using the curriculum. I have found this a huge advantage over the Apologia high-school science courses we have been doing up until this point.If they were struggling in math it would affect their high-school future science courses. So for high school sciences we will be doing this curriculum.

 The Anatomy & Physiology course is a half credit highschool anatomy course. I will be adding videos & an anatomy coloringbook/ workbook to make it a full highschool credit. Another option is doing this for one semester and the second semester doing Principles. Theories, and Precepts of Biology to create a full credit off Anatomy & Physiology.
                                                                     Quote from the publisher," One of the objectives of this unit study is to equip teenagers with knowledge and principles with which to make positive life choices that will enhance health and happiness.Thus, students will learn life choices, diet, exercise and even thoughts affect physical and emotional health."  This is one of the reasons I want my high school students studying this course.They will need to make choices about their health all of their lives so I feel it is important to have an understanding of the human body. The Wisdom Booklets Medicine resource also does an excellent job of this.

 It is a Christian curriculum from a Christian world view so there are quotes throughout the lessons.At the end of each lesson is a worksheet.

 This is the anatomy coloring book we will be doing alongside the study.

There is further information to learn , labeling, coloring to identify the parts.
