February Book Club Review

Meet Macy McMillan

In the March Book Club

Has your child experienced a visual language? The protagonist in our next book club selection is deaf and uses the visual language of American Sign Language (ASL).

I grew up attending Keller family reunions, as in Helen Keller. No one in my immediate family was deaf, but I had the fortunate opportunity to grow up around adults that knew ASL or pidgin (PSE). If your child has not experienced a visual language, they may enjoy this music video from D-PAN, in which children demonstrate ASL in the song "We're Going To Be Friends" by the White Stripes.

We look forward to seeing your child at the next Beyond Biology Book Club, where we will learn more about both science and character!

Bones & Joints

From Anatomy Coloring Book Club

By Arabella, Age 12

"To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funny bone." -Reba McEntire

What do you know about bones?

On Tuesday, Dr. Robin taught about bones and joints. She told us how we can strengthen our bones, just like our muscles. She explained that our hands are made of long bones, such as the ones in our fingers. There are lots of little marble-like bones in our wrists, which let us move them. We have two bones in our lower arms, which twist around each other. We also have two bones in our lower legs, but only one in our upper legs. This bone is called the femur, and it is the largest bone in the body.

More Than Just Science: Character Education in Human Biology The β€œHidden Curriculum” As a human biology teacher, my goal is not just to impart scientific knowledge about the human body. I also aim to foster a deeper understanding of what it means to be human, both in terms of biology and ethics. This involves weaving in what might be called a β€œhidden curriculum” – lessons that go beyond the textbook and teach students important life skills and values. Respect and Awe for the Human Body One of...
