Rigorous and engaging, this elementary secular Biology curriculum offers incremental lessons, hands-on experiments, reading lists, and more. Beginning with an introduction to biology, this course covers cells and DNA, animal and human anatomy, plant structure and function, evolution and natural selection, ecology, and the evolutionary tree. Students will also learn and practice the scientific method. Lead by “Bear” your Tardigrade guide for the course, the lessons are presented in a child-friendly narrative that explains vocabulary words and scientific concepts using age-appropriate language, examples, and activities. 36-week schedule is included, at a pace of 2 days per week. Experiments use easily sourced items. A microscope (40-100x minimum) and microscope slides are suggested but not required.
