Explore the nervous system

To learn how the nervous system functions, you must learn how the nervous system is put together. The nervous system can be divided into several connected systems that function together. Let's start with a simple division: Anatomy Arcade - Students. Nothing beats a hands on dissection, but I'm sure you'd agree that school would be heaps better if there were more games like this and less worksheets.

Anatomy Arcade - Students

During our human body unit, we spent quite some time studying cells – their functions and parts. This discussion naturally led to a study of DNA and genetics. What fun! Cells Understanding the basic formation of a cell began by using the model of an egg.

Cell pizzas (an idea from Journey2Excellence) helped us concretely review each cell part and its function. Crust edge = cell membraneSauce & cheese = cytoplasmSalami = nucleusMushroom = nucleolusOnion = endoplasmic reticulumGreen pepper = golgi bodyRed pepper = mitochondriaPepperoni = vacuoles & centriolesOlives = ribosomes & lysosomes A simple review sheet from Crayola served as a “quiz”.

This YouTube video gave us a nice overview of DNA within cells. We were so excited to learn more about DNA by working with the CSI DNA Build Kit. Human Body Systems - Our Journey Westward. Considering God’s Creation has been the spine curriculum for our 6th grade human body study.
