What teachers like you are saying about Human Body Files:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ” The lymphatic system can be a challenge for students to grasp so this project helped tie everything from the book & in-class lectures together. What I liked about this activity was my students had to think yet be creative. I displayed their projects in my school hallway for other students to view. It was a hit.” B.Y.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Oh my goodness! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! … I cannot believe how much time Science Island put into making these. They are so creative! The directions are so specific and easy to follow! The detail in the directions in the folder is unbelievable. There are “must do” activities and ways to jazz it up … I am so, so happy with this! … So pumped for this school year! Thank you!!!!” J.P.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “This is an AMAZING resource and a steal, given the obvious time and thought invested by the creator. My students are really enjoying learning the body systems using the folder projects. One student said she feels that she is definitely learning more than the way we were doing body systems before. Included are step-by-step details both for students and the teacher. It was so well done and easy to follow. 10/10, definitely would buy again!” G.P.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”My students are extremely excited when we complete these as notes for each unit. I have the flexibility to include or remove information as necessary while incorporating all of the necessary standards. It is a one-stop-shop for the students, and it aids a variety of different learning styles.” D.W.
