How To Use Your Alphabet Pages Making an alphabet book can be fun for all ages. The younger ones in your family can make them simple, while your older ones can make theirs more complex. Some types of alphabet pages are made with wide lines and some with more narrowly spaced lines to suit different age levels. These pages can be used during or after your study of the Human Body to research or review and write about what you have learned during your study. They can also be used as an activity to complete after reading a book such as Brown Paper School book: Blood and Guts by Linda Allison. After you have completed a notebooking page for each letter of the alphabet, place a piece of paper in the front and the back to create a cover and a back cover for your book. If you want to get very creative, you can use brown craft paper or a paper bag after you have wrinkled it up and pressed it out for your cover. Or, you can seep a tea bag, squeeze a bit of the excess water from it, and rub it all over your paper to create your own parchment- looking paper.
You can decorate your cover with stickers or clipart or your own drawings with a human body theme. You might even want to make it 3-D with a toothpick skeleton glued on the front or a picture of a skull with jiggly eyeballs. You will have a lovely keepsake of your studies for purposes of review and for your student portfolio. A list of recommended topics to write about for each letter of the alphabet is included on the following pages. Not every topic is included; you can use your own in place of some of the ones we have suggested to match your child’s interests and studies. Here are a few good websites to help you with some of your research: Human Anatomy Charts, Diagrams, and Animations http://www.innerbody.com/index.html Human Anatomy Lesson Plan Ideas http://www.teach-nology.com/teachers/lesson_plans/science/anatomy/ Assorted Web Sites about Human Anatomy http://www.awesomelibrary.org/Classroom/Science/Biology/Human_-_Anatomy.html
