What educators are saying
My students are very interested in the human body systems and they really enjoyed learning about the nervous system through these readings. The graphic organizers are very helpful as well. Thank you!
We used this as a review of neurons and the CNS and PNS. I like how the fill-in-the-blanks was not just a carbon copy of the text with missing words so kids had to actually read!
I plan to use more of this lesson next year or for review later in the year.
