My favorite thing my mom did when we did the human body unit was that on the first day of the unit we traced our bodies and then as we learned about each different sytem and specific part we colored a printout of that part and added it to our life size bodies. It was SO FUN.
I teach kindergarten in Australia. When we cover the human body I set up a doctor’s clinic/hospital for the children to role play. I find as the can’t write well early on in the year they communicate their level of understanding through the conversation and play that happens in that play corner. It would be great for your younger 3. It can be super simple or more elaborate. A find a working stethoscope, a few baby dolls and a real life first aid kit is a great place to start. You could set it up near the play kitchen.
Look up extraction of strawberry DNA it’s a fun thing for kids of all ages to do and can easily be done at home. In the end you can see the dna and it looks like snot which little boys always love!!
I love how much you care about giving them as much exposure to information as they need but also that you add the things they want to know about. I'm currently in my last year of highschool and have been watching your videos for months now. Angela, honestly your family is such a huge inspiration to me. If I wasn't planning on becoming a special needs teacher, I'd home-school my own kids. Thank you for videos like this. And DNA is interesting. I hope they enjoy learning about that.
What I don't understand about homeschooling is: how do you work with children of different ages, do they all learn the same basic content? How do you get their attention and get them to focus- especially with children with learning disabilities? What do you do with your babies while you give your lessons? Btw I love how organized and resourceful you are!
We use a trifold/bifold poster board (like you use for science fair presentations) as our science wall. I put Velcro on it as well as the vocab words after I laminated them . That way when finished with the unit study we can use it over and over again.
Dear Angie, your homeschool videos are so inspiring! I work as a teacher in Germany (biology and chemistry) and I am so impressed by you teaching so many subjects to so many children! It must be so much work! Your resources for the human body unit look so fun and interesting and I am sure your kids will enjoy this unit so much - I would enjoy it as a kid! I am looking forward to your next homeschool video! Loves, Anita :)
Same 😂 it’s not even legal in my country lol so unless I want to face serious consequences, my children will have to put up with public school like everyone else 😂👏🏼
Hello Angie! I just wanted to let you know that I am a teacher that has worked in mainstream and special needs schools and I adore these videos. Always on the hunt for new and creative lesson ideas.and I believe that you explain what works and why you chose it very well. Love the hands on stuff as often am creating pieces lime that myself (like labels for names of body parts).
For your TH-cam part I instantly thought of the Once Upon a Time... series. It's pretty old, but I loved it as a child. (It aired on German TV, I had to look up if it had an English translation... ;) ) The Once Upon a Time... Life has episodes for different parts and functions of the body, for example I can still remember the one about the immune system and how it's the body's police ;) I think you can find the episodes on TH-cam. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Once_Upon_a_Time..._Life And if you do a history unit the Once Upon a Time... Man is also very interesting :)
One of our favorite units too! I plan my units this way, except I don't have any room for the chalkboard that I would love. My kids also adore the "Anatomy Apron" that I bought several years ago. They can wear it around and see the various body parts.
My dream is to homeschool. My husband is also really excited about it. I love that you started this channel so I can start getting great ideas and keep my excitement up even though people I know think I'm crazy. Thank youuu ❤❤❤❤
I'm not even a homeschooling mom (my son isn't even a year old yet!), but I just stinking love your content and this new channel is the bomb! I love diving into your brain and seeing how you do this thing. I may do some kind of homeschooling in the future, but for now I just love seeing how other people figure this parenting thing out. Love it!
Confession: i am not a homeschool mom, i'm nowhere near having kids! But i enjoy every single minute of these videos! I was homeschooled as a kid but it was still that rigid setup. You have definitely opened my mind and made me consider homeschooling faaaaaaaar into the future if it's in the plan for me to have kids
Very good explanation of expanding unit study. We are currently studying the universe for about the next six weeks or so. I will definitely be adding resources to expand on it. You and CR are talented artists. The drawings looked great.
We love all of the discovery places! It’s the perfect activity for this heat, and last year we even had passes🙃 thanks for sharing! Loving this channel
I bet you can also find Magic School Bus videos and books to go right along with the body systems too. :). Great work. I used to go to the library all the time for books like those too. Saves a lot of money and no need to store them all. You can always check them out again as well. Oh good, you mentioned Magic a school bus at the end. :)
Angie, u really are an inspiration. This video was fantastic, u make it look so easy. I don’t know how u juggle homeschooling and being a full time mummy. An amazing person xo
We are starting our FIRST year of homeschooling tomorrow, with kinder! Using a boxed curriculum our first year while I get my groove-- BUT, we are using TGTB for science! Thanks for the amazing ideas. Working on preparing my space science wall tonight. I'm using a trifold board from dollar tree.
We do the Good and The Beautiful as well with 5 children! I’m so in love with it. We’ve done the space unit and we’re now doing kingdoms and classifications. The Language Arts and History are I n c r e d I b l e⭐️
Hey Angie! We live so close. I've been homeschooling for 6 years and I love watching other homeschoolers. I've recently started vlogging more which I'm excited and nervous about...😬 I originally found you a year or two ago by your homeschool videos and I'm so happy you started this channel. Great chalk wall!
Thank you... I love your videos!! I'm going to start homeschooling for the first time this fall and this video is one I have been searching for. You are amazing!!
I absolutely love your new channel! Thank you for sharing all this information! We are far away from homeschooling (with our first bub being due in March!) but will definitely use these videos as a resource when the time comes! Xox
I'm highly impressed with your Homeschool videos and this unit! We plan to start homeschooling next year and I will be watching for your new videos. I can't wait to see what else you share!
Would you consider doing a video with your mother and sisters about their experiences home-schooling or being home-schooled? I'd be interested in seeing how your experience teaching homeschool is different from your mothers, just a thought! I love your channel!
I’m finding these videos so helpful! I am in the process of planning our school year, to start in a few weeks, and I’m loving that you’re going through what you do in detail. Thank you!
Wow, I recommended the Professor Noggin games, I love that you took my recommendation, they are great games. I love the unit and all the resources. The chalk wall is amazing.
I enjoy watching your videos; I believe you will cover more about the human body with what you have there than what is taught in public schools. Great Job
So excited to have found your channel!! I heard about your channel from my Usborne leader and couldn’t wait to see how you use Usborne books in your homeschool! I’m a homeschool TH-cam mama with 5 kids!! I so look forward to checking out more of your videos!!!
We are currently working through TGATB meteorology unit and it is so much fun! Now I am really looking forward to doing the human body unit as well. You have some great resources to go with it that I will have to come back and look at again when I'm planning 😊
Love love love your homeschool videos! You should do the 23andMe test with all the kids and use that information when you are teaching about DNA and where everyone comes from!
Brittany Woods Yes, so interesting. My brother, sister, and I all did it and even though we all have the same parents we got different results based on which genes we got. We did some research and found that 1 in every 400,000 people have a biological grandparents they share 0 genes with. Crazy.
Loved this! Another great book is the Dr suess inside your outside machine book! It would be really good for your younger ones!! My kids LOVE it and it’s full of great info about how the body works but it all rhymes :)
Great vid! As you move through units would love a vid like this on each of them. As well as a reflection vid at the end of the unit to see what worked and what you would change. ☺
My nieces love Operation Ouch. It is an educational children’s show in the UK but may be viewable on TH-cam. It makes it accessible in a non-patronising way!
Wow! I'm waiting for my good and the beautiful order... the human body is what we are starting with any I'm definitely going to have to pick up some of these resources. What a great list
So glad you made this video. I’m excited to do a human body unit in January since that’s when health and fitness is kinda on our minds anyways. Totally planning on using the Usborne books too. Love these videos!
PLEASE LIKE SO SHE SEES IT! THANKS! suggestion: At the end of all classes you could go to a first aid course for kids?:) I don’t know if you have one in your country/area but I think it is never too early to take a first aid class :) for your younger ones they will explain it easier, but your two older ones maybe can do a normal first aid course. They’ll learn a lot for their daily life. I took my first one with 13 years And just had my fourth one with 21 lots of love from Germany :)
I used to watch a cartoon, a series of episodes of an italian show named "Siamo fatti così" (=we are made like that). It was amazing and very helpful un understanding processes in human body. This could be interesting if you can find the english version!
I have two boys (ages 6&4) and they love to draw human bodies on our driveway. One will lay down on the driveway while the other traces around with chalk. They both work together to draw what's inside their bodies. They switch among the different systems depending on their interests. At first, they would have questions and we would look up the answers together, but now they can do it on their own. I thought it might be an activity your kids might enjoy too.
I am loving that you are sharing homeschool content again! I am curious how long do you spend on each unit? Does the child's age effect how long you keep a unit open? I have my eldest ready for primer K and was thinking this may be a good unit for her but am unsure of how to structure it for her age bracket. Anyway, thank you so much for sharing!
Hey Angie, first off I have been loving this channel! My toddler is only three but I love all the resource options you have been providing as I’ve been picking through to help teach him the basics. However, I apologize if this may be too personal, but I was wondering how you afford all these fantastic tools and beautiful books. Is there funding from the state because they’re not in public school or is this just something that you figure it and make it work?
I love the chalkboard and so many great book ideas! Just might paint a chalk board in our dining room! We’ll be doing human body after we finish Arthropods. And oh forget the books - WHERE did you get those earrings?!
I would love to homeschool my son when he's of age. I feel like it'd be great for him and me since my husband and I are wanting to grow our family. I love the way you do things, I just feel I am not as creative as most. I'm torn.
Some extra resource ideas for you! SciShow Kids here on TH-cam has lots of great science videos for the kids, and Teachers Paying Teachers which is a website where teachers post low cost or free resources and you don't have to be a teacher to register. For the DNA unit, you could probably teach the kids some easy Punnett squares. My favorite example to use for DNA and teaching dominate genes is eye color.
So many great items and ideas! We are doing this unit in the spring and I'm tempted to buy lots of extras... but the cost 😯 Do you work within a budget for homeschooling or do you just buy what you feel you need?
Did you have to purchase most or all of these item for this year? Seems like some of your units would get rather expensive. Are you able to use these items as a tax deduction at all or get some type of home schooling money threw grants? Sorry, I hope you don't mind me asking. I am just curious. I couldn't get my daughter into preschool this fall because of my business hours (I do daycare and not enough room in our van to drive all the kids with me to drop her off) so I am doing some home schooling things with her. I do a lot of preschool type things with my daycare but my daughter's will be a bit more one on one (during nap). I purchased her curriculum also from The Good and The Beautiful. It has a really nice layout I think. I am excited to give it a try with her.
There are ways to do things much cheaper than I do 😂😂😂 trust me. I consider it an investment as I can use it all again and again... also I can consign and sell things we are no longer using.
I'm curious, with units when you have younger children will you revisit this topic with more age appropriate school work or do you just cover it once? Wonder how many times you repeat with the younger kids.
I was watching another video and got my answer. Thought I would share with those of you who are curious. I liked this answer and think this is how I will try it. My daughter is in kindergarten and very eager to learn. I plan on using the science units with The Good And The Beautiful science units starting now with safety and next year repeat these units and touch on different, age appropriate topics in that subject. An example is my daughter doesn't need to learn about internet safety at this age, but well repeat that later on with other age appropriate topics u til I feel the subject had been covered totally. Hope that makes sense.
Thank you for sharing this! So good. We are doing TGTB Kingdoms unit and Chemistry unit this year (7th grader) What Usborne books would you recommend for those 2 units? Thanks! Love your videos.
Do you purchase all these books? Just wondering about the price tag. I'm interested in homeschooling but don't know if I will be able to afford it. I live in a French province and want my children schooled in English, not sure how many resources would be available at the library considering there's only one store in the entire city which exclusively sells English books!
You should watch the TH-cam video Louie Giglio on Laminin. It talks about the glue that holds our skin to our body. It might be good for the older kids. Also check out Bill Nye the science guy body on TH-cam. The magic School bus inside the body on TH-cam
If I lived in America, I would 100% homeschool but it’s just too taboo here in the uk I wouldn’t feel comfortable but it’s such a shame because this is exactly what I want for my kids.
My favorite thing my mom did when we did the human body unit was that on the first day of the unit we traced our bodies and then as we learned about each different sytem and specific part we colored a printout of that part and added it to our life size bodies. It was SO FUN.

MammaFox 10 They sell those at the Dollar Tree stores by me.
I love your taste in books! Makes me wish I had been taught this way as a child. I can guarantee I would have retained more....

So true!
I absolutely love how you out this unit together! so many wonderful resources! Your kids will love it.
I love that you started a homeschool channel! I get so excited for Tuesdays and Thursdays when I hear that notification bell go off.
A great resource on TH-cam is the crash course biology series! Very in depth but there are certainly things you could pull from it! ❤️
Thanks for the idea!
I haven’t got children and when I do I doubt I’d homeschool. Yet I’m loving these videos 😂
Laura Turvey same here haha
Same haha, 19 year old here 🙋🏻♀️

I use the magic school bus through my unit studies! My son loves it!

which one are you using !? I would love to know :)
@@growinguplewis9959 for the science unit? Or boxed set?

You’re amazing! Tons of thinking, tons of planning! Wow!!!
Love this. Makes me want to go redo anatomy with my kids. But, adding this to my list for when I do this unit with my youngest. Thanks for sharing!!
I love this video and all your suggestions. I hope you will do another science unit study example this upcoming school year!!!
We are also using The Good and the Beautiful curriculum this year!! I love your new homeschool channel!!

Diana Brown 💚💚💚
I love your idea about organizing your thoughts on that printout for the unit. Totally going to do that!
Love love love your homeschool videos! You should do the 23andMe test with all the kids and use that information when you are teaching about DNA and where everyone comes from!

Such a great variety of books. And the games look so much fun. Definitely a subject i want to do for us this year. Your chalk wall is perfect.
I'm loving these videos. I find homeschooling so fascinating
Loved this! Another great book is the Dr suess inside your outside machine book! It would be really good for your younger ones!! My kids LOVE it and it’s full of great info about how the body works but it all rhymes :)
This is SO helpful! Thank you for sharing! I'm a newbie homeschooler of 3 and this is really inspiring.
This is our first science unit of the year too, love everything you've added to it. I'm going to have to step up my game. 😀
Great vid! As you move through units would love a vid like this on each of them. As well as a reflection vid at the end of the unit to see what worked and what you would change. ☺
In the uk we have a tv show called nina and the neurons might be worth looking into
My nieces love Operation Ouch. It is an educational children’s show in the UK but may be viewable on TH-cam. It makes it accessible in a non-patronising way!
Thank you so much for sharing, it's perfect for the other homeschoolers! 💖
Wow! I'm waiting for my good and the beautiful order... the human body is what we are starting with any I'm definitely going to have to pick up some of these resources. What a great list
So glad you made this video. I’m excited to do a human body unit in January since that’s when health and fitness is kinda on our minds anyways.
Totally planning on using the Usborne books too.
Love these videos!

Funny timing, I start this unit with my eldest today. 😊 Very helpful resources, thank you so much!
Thanks for posting! We're going to be doing this unit after Arthropods. Great ideas :)
DNA is an amazing topic! I wanna come learn with yall! So cool!
Good job dad on the art work!
All the inspiration! I’ve been stalking those x rays on amazon lol
Love the chalk wall!! I wish I had one!

I love the chalk board!
Some extra resource ideas for you! SciShow Kids here on TH-cam has lots of great science videos for the kids, and Teachers Paying Teachers which is a website where teachers post low cost or free resources and you don't have to be a teacher to register.
For the DNA unit, you could probably teach the kids some easy Punnett squares. My favorite example to use for DNA and teaching dominate genes is eye color.
we love scishow kids!!
Wow 👍🏻 CR is a great Artist and your handwriting is really nice 👍🏻 have a great day 👍🏻☘️🦄🌺💕😘
Have you checked out Snips & Snails? She compiles excellent units like these. She has quite a bit of hands-on projects as well. Thanks for sharing!!

My question also!
Jesse Cottrell Awesome question!
I was watching another video and got my answer. Thought I would share with those of you who are curious. I liked this answer and think this is how I will try it. My daughter is in kindergarten and very eager to learn. I plan on using the science units with The Good And The Beautiful science units starting now with safety and next year repeat these units and touch on different, age appropriate topics in that subject. An example is my daughter doesn't need to learn about internet safety at this age, but well repeat that later on with other age appropriate topics u til I feel the subject had been covered totally. Hope that makes sense.
Jesse Cottrell In my family, we come back again in a few years.
Thank you for sharing this! So good. We are doing TGTB Kingdoms unit and Chemistry unit this year (7th grader) What Usborne books would you recommend for those 2 units? Thanks! Love your videos.
I would love 💗 to come to your class👍🏻🙏💕 you are amazing 👍🏻👍🏻
this is so well prepared 👏👏👏 amazing!
Seeing all these books and resources makes me so excited! :) We're Usborne lovers, too (oops - I say "uz" like you!).
I need to know where you got your chalkboard!! Or did you make it yourself? Please and thank you!! Lol =)
Madison Hopper she made it by painting a section on the wall with chalk board paint and putting a boarder around it.
Madison Hopper I painted a chalkboard wall 17 or 18 yr.’s ago for my son & he loved it...One of those greatest inventions!!!
Do you purchase all these books? Just wondering about the price tag. I'm interested in homeschooling but don't know if I will be able to afford it. I live in a French province and want my children schooled in English, not sure how many resources would be available at the library considering there's only one store in the entire city which exclusively sells English books!
Thanks for this video I found it really helpful ✨
Love your homeschool videos :)
Awesome stuff! how long do you go through a unit like this? is it all year, half the year or over like a month?
I love Hobonichi!
You should watch the TH-cam video Louie Giglio on Laminin.
It talks about the glue that holds our skin to our body. It might be good for the older kids.
Also check out Bill Nye the science guy body on TH-cam.
The magic School bus inside the body on TH-cam
If I lived in America, I would 100% homeschool but it’s just too taboo here in the uk I wouldn’t feel comfortable but it’s such a shame because this is exactly what I want for my kids.
kidshealth on youtube if you go to their playlist they have videos on how the body works. its animated and really good. at least we really like it.
How do you keep your books in such great shape 😩 my kids are monsters.
Arika Porche same! My toddler has chewed off pieces of her cardboard books! 😂 (caught it before she swallowed)
Natural Vegan Mom look up indestructibles books on amazon. They are literally indestructible and perfect for getting toddlers used to books!
Laughter In The Trenches thank you so much!!
Laughter In The Trenches yes! We use them at the school I teach at and they’re amazing!
I personally used to keep mine put up when my kids were younger, mine are now 7&11 so they don't but they used to tear them up :(
This is a unit I am particularly excited about.
Do you ever get burnt out and feel uninspired?
Thank you so much for making this
Video of day in school!! Make it please
