| | Fearfully and Wonderfully Made |
| | |
| | In this elementary level human anatomy class, (K-2 and 3-5), we give God our creator the glory for our wonderful human bodies. Therefore, our foundational scripture is Psalms 139:14
I will praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made - - - and throughout the semester course, students will explore the wonders of basic human anatomy and will engage in various fun tasks (bean bag organ toss game..) and hands-on experiences related to the human organ systems (cardiovascular, skeletal). For example, we make (fake) human blood using cranberry juice for the plasma, mini white marshmallows for the white blood cells, craisins for the platelets, etc) and we also make (fake) human mucus (or use slime if there are severe allergies) to facilitate learning the purposes of the mucosal linings in the human body.
The first class begins with each student constructing a life-size paper replica of themselves to which various human paper organisms will be colored, cut out and adhered as the units on each organ are covered.
Additionally, relevant scriptures are shared weekly that aid in the study of the various organs and organ systems. The instructor will need to know if your child has any food allergies before the blood and mucus units are covered approximately one month or so into the class schedule. There is also a weekly musical element in which students move their fearfully and wonderfully made muscles in praise to God. Parents are invited to join us anytime for they are ALSO fearfully and wonderfully made as well.

| | My name is Candyce Torres, and I am thrilled to be part of this vibrant homeschool community. As a homeschooling mom of three wonderful children Gavin, Elliana, and Isabella who have been attending Palaestra since 2018, I understand firsthand the importance of providing a nurturing and enriching educational environment. In my teaching philosophy, I strive to create a supportive and engaging atmosphere where children can thrive. I believe in the power of silliness and laughter to unlock creativity and foster a love for learning. Most importantly, I am dedicated to helping children recognize their unique gifts and talents, knowing that each one is fearfully and wonderfully made by God. |
