Hello Reader,
It's summer in the northern hemisphere and we're enjoying the different pace.
Hannah has been away for several weeks visiting family and spends most of her summer performing as a mermaid...therefore, many of you are hearing directly from Dr. Robin when you write in. We appreciate your patience with her lower level tech skills. :-) But it's also been a lot of fun for her to get to handle all the questions and requests herself!
​
Dr. Robin Interview!If you're like us, your schedule is busy and you want to just relax with friends. This will be perfect for you! Dr. Robin was interviewed as part of a virtual summit running July 21st-23rd. It's a friendly, informal conversation jam packed with science info for families and that's only one of over 20 great interviews with a variety of educators. (We think you'll enjoy it even if you don't homeschool!)

Scouts? 4H?We've had some requests about a First Aid unit that could also be used to work towards a First Aid badge with Girl Scouts. As we're planning this, we'd like to know what other organizations our students belong to so we can make sure we cover all the bases for all the badges, exhibits, or whatever you are working on! Hit reply or click below to fill out the contact form to have your activity included in our planning!

Resources for "The Talk"How to get started and how to explain it all, especially when most of us had a really terrible explanation to begin with, well, it's a lot! Our #1 requested unit is Human Reproduction. We've created the models (yes we did, polymer clay, and yes it was kind of weird). We're halfway done recording and will have this released before fall. Everyone who has active full year full access at the time of release (even if your start date is in the future) will receive human reproduction for free when it releases.

Shopping for SuppliesWe've been getting more questions from parents who are purchasing supplies for summer science or next fall. Find out what Dr. Robin uses with her family!

Hello Reader, It's another month and another newsletter to your inbox! Wondering there was no newsletter last month? Dr. Robin had pneumonia! No fun to be a patient but fascinating from a science perspective. After watching the lesson on pneumonia, you'll know what her x-ray might look like (hint: she was on antibiotics and it was a right middle lobe pneumonia). To find out more about how it's been, check out her reels on Instagram. We need your help...Dr. Robin's School is run by only two...
