Exploring Creation with Human Anatomy and Physiology (Young Explorer Series)

We love this book. I am using it with my 5 children ranging in ages 8-11 (with a 3 year old along for the ride). Reasons I love it:1. Captivating- The lessons are communicated in a way that is interesting enough to keep attention and aid in memory retention-thorough education (and more) of anatomy and physiology without being dry.2. Activities- simple and easy to throw together at the last minute. I usually just look over what I plan on covering for the next 2 weeks to make sure I have supplies and do last minute prep right before teaching.3. I am able to easily make this work for our variety of age ranges/styles- They all have the notebooks that accompany this book and it took me a while to figure this out- but I just assign something simple for each of them to do before/after or during the reading.4. Christian apologetic perspective. I hear a lot of arguments against Christianity. It's so nice to have an intelligent fun curriculum that helps the children defend their faith. I debated in college. This stuff rocks.Highly recommend- what I would change/add? Something that is not necessary but has been helpful is for me to read through the part we will be reading for the day and to have some kind of simple introductory activity or question or thought to get us started- it seems to help in making the lessons seem more complete. Also, There is not a lot of instruction for the accompanying notebooks for the children to write in/complete. But, it's flexibility in what you can do with it is helpful as well. The notebook has a lot of great activities.

Excellent for elementary & middle school science curriculum- great creation science reading for anyone! Everything points to our original creation, and how everything has intelligent design. This is one of the better creation science curriculums out there. It can be used alone, or supplement with other anatomy books- but really, this teaches quite a lot on the subject, and is pretty well put together. Although it does teach enough for a standalone science curriculum, I like to go online or use some of the better known mainstream kids/young adult science series for supplementation (though usually only for imagery- we agree with Jeannie Fulbrights Creation Science model). Our above average 4th grade reader can sit and read this on her own and learn a lot. I do read it with all 3 of our kids (from K-4th grade) but I allow our oldest to read ahead on her own as well. I learn just as much as them as I'm teaching-- some I was taught and forgot- but some new things as well! It really is a good book to use as home school curriculum from Kindergarten all the way through middle school. Most high school aged kids may actually learn a lot from this book as well- it all depends on what they have learned in their schooling thus far. Everybody will get something from this book. As a homeschooling mother of 3, I have been- and continue to teach a bit of everything in Science- but I do like to teach from a platform that Creation based. The whole Exploring Creation series should be purchased and used throughout Elementary & Middle school if you can buy them all! They can even be used into high school if you haven't gone through them all by then. Great for any Creation Science curriculum.

Wonder for adults as well to learn about the body . I bought it used and was a bit dirty but I love the book

My son is 11 and autistic, his reading level is 3rd to 4th grade. We read this book together and spend a lot of time talking about the words we are reading. I have to explain everything in great detail so the lessons are long. I am a nurse so I am a bit critical about the material but I find everything is well written and accurate. I like the book however I find the material to be beyond what children have to know, as in MEMORIZE. I would not try to have my son memorize the material since such details are given to the material and the introduction to new large words are given at every turn. I use this more as an introduction to the body as a whole, to organs, to functions, bones, blood, and all in between. Pictures included.

I want to be very clear here. If you believe in evolution you will not like any apologia resources such as this. I haven't read any other reviews but I wanted to be completely forthright with that information. This is a creationist anatomy and physiology book. It is excellent! I have a degree in biomedical engineering and I got very excited reading this book and my son also has been really enjoying it! We have read several chapters together and he is taking it for a class in our homeschool co-op this year. Like I said, many things tie back to creation. we really like apologia resources a lot!

Nice book, lots of color photos and activities to go along with each chapter.

This book is perfect for my 5th grade daughter in our homeschool. It’s easy to understand but also covers so much information. There are 14 Lessons/Chapters with a few short experiments throughout each one, followed by a more involved Project or Experiment at the end of each Lesson/Chapter.Well worth my purchase!

The authors of this book have done a wonderful job presenting human anatomy and physiology in a way that combines both the Christian perspective and scientific facts in an easy-to-understand, captivating format for children of elementary through middle school ages. We are in a homeschool co-op, and have found this book to be very teachable, with many simple, hands-on experiments. It is easy to follow, interesting, and at the same time covers a great deal of detail in the proper scientific terms. Highly recommend!

Além do conteúdo que muito bom, o linguajar aproxima o leitor, os exemplos do dia a dia são excelentes, as experiências são simples e fácies de fazer.

Excellent resource! Arrived in ample time and perfect condition. Thankyou!

My daughter home schools her children and has bought other similar books from this publishing company - easy to read even for a pension like myself. The kids love them.

Fantastic book! Speedy delivery! Many thanks!
