Here’s our lapbook monster featuring Lesson 4: The Digestive System. In Apologia’s Exploring Creation with Human Anatomy and Physiology, they add in the Renal System. We’re going to keep it separate in our lapbooks, even if it’s only a page of information.
I didn’t use too much of Knowledge Box Central’s lapbook foldables this time. In fact, I was really disappointed! It only had one foldable for the entire Digestive System! Because of that, I had to supplement a LOT of pieces. I also found this downloadable (yay!) book from Scholastic: Easy Make & Learn Projects: The Human Body. This is where that giant inside-view of the girl comes from.
We aren’t doing any more standard tests in this class. The cool thing about homeschooling, is that we can add, subtract, and do whatever we need to do to make learning happen.
