This Homeschool Human Anatomy Study Has Everything!

Here at The Waldock Way, we love unit studies. They provide such a unique way to combine lots different content and activities. Unit studies help us explore how things are connected and dive deeper into subjects our homeschooler is passionate about.

Lately, our daughter Emily has been really passionate about anatomy. She’s fascinated by the human body and how our systems all work together to keep us healthy. Want to explore human anatomy with your homeschoolers too?

Homeschooling Science Through Unit Studies

Homeschooling with unit studies helps kids see the big picture. Unit studies link together multiple subjects and concepts in a way that allows your homeschoolers to make important connections and dive deep into the subject. Because of this, unit studies make it easy to teach real-world lessons and add experiences and field trips that help bring it all to life in new ways. 

When I plan our unit studies here at The Waldock Way, I try to focus on subjects that interest Emily and incorporate activities and lessons I know she can sink her teeth into. Focusing on your child’s interests and passions helps keep homeschoolers engaged and increases retention. 

I usually try to incorporate at least reading, writing, history, geography, and science into our unit studies. When it comes to science, unit studies provide a great way to build in experiments, research, and lots of hands-on learning fun. This year, Emily has a real interest in anatomy and I’ve decided to capitalize on her curiosity with a fun hands-on human anatomy unit study.
