As you know, I ALWAYS have some sort of EAA (Early Arrivers Activity) for my KIDDOS. I usually have the same EAA for 2 weeks. I try to CHANGE out the EAA'S often...yet keep a bit of consistency during a particular lesson. If this is your first time coming to the HANDS ON BIBLE TEACHER website, let me explain what EAA'S are....If you have been here before, just SKIP ahead! :) I believe it is very important to use EVERY minute of Bible Class time as TEACHABLE Moments. From the second a KIDDO comes into the room....it is time to be teaching. And, do to the fact that I have several "EARLY ARRIVERS" I want to make sure to have something that is relevant to BIBLE LEARNING for the KIDDOS to do....Thus became the need for EAAS. By the way, these PERSONAL size whiteboards came from LOWES. I purchased a LARGE sheet of WALL BOARD and then had the very sweet and helpful guy, that ran the saw at the store, cut them down to size for me. There were several cuts that had to be made....but, when I explained that they were for teaching Bible Class...they did not even charge me for all that cutting!!! (We now have these personal whiteboards in every classroom!!!!!) This past Sunday I wanted the KIDDOS to draw me a picture of their Favorite story about David. So, before Bible Class I coded each board with "Favorite Story About David." When the KIDDOS arrived they were instructed to draw their FAVORITE STORY about the life of David. He really enjoyed DRAWING me a picture of his Favorite Story About David. This KIDDO decided to draw a picture of KING David singing Psalms to The LORD. I LOVE David's ROBE and CROWN!!!...and the "LO, LO, LO, LO, LO, LO" is David Singing. (I LOVE KID DRAWINGS!!!) This KIDDO decided to draw me a picture of David and Jonathan. She says she LOVES that they were BFF'S. I LOVE her drawing!!!! She said Jonathan needed curly hair!!!! :) I was impressed at how much the KIDDOS remembered about the life of David. Even though the KIDDOS were having FUN drawing....this gave me an opportunity to SEE what the had learned about the life of King David. This was a way of TESTING my past teaching....gives me a way to know if they are really "GETTING" the lessons I am teaching. These "TESTS" are fun...and the KIDDOS do not even realize I am "TESTING" their memory!!! :) I always try to find FUN and EXCITING ways to make sure the KIDDOS remember their past lessons. This just happens to be one of my FAVORITES!! Blessings, Ronda

As the school year starts many of us will be teaching colors in our classrooms. Most children are familiar with colors and will be able to use their background knowledge to learn color names, color sorting, color words, and more. Below are some resources and suggestions of how these activities could be used in the classroom. Color PostersColor posters are perfect for classroom decor in the art center, visual aides in the classroom, sorting mats in the math center, and much more. These posters

G7 physiology and G8 anatomy Teaching G7 physiology and G8 anatomy is a challenge in the Waldorf classroom! There really are not many resources on it. I have had to myself compile ideas from various sources such as my own textbooks and online journals. Then, I added my own layer of ideas and imaginations - after all, that is what Rudolf Steiner had expected we would do in our teaching! Whether you are teaching in a classroom for your students or in a home school for your children, you might find this post with an outline for blocks useful as a starting point. I have included in this post the five key elements of the physiology or anatomy blocks. I then list four concepts within each of the four systems for physiology and anatomy. In this way, you will have a guideline for a four-week block. Most likely, you will conceive of your block in your own special way to meet your beautiful students. I have updated this blog post to include a link to an eBook I wrote that addresses the topic of reproduction. You might find it helpful in opening a conversation with your teen! The eBook contains illustrations and a week's worth of ideas for a lesson on the reproductive system. Click on the photo here. "Let's Talk Biology and Biography" eBook Be Authentic, Enthusiastic, Interested, Open, and Understanding. Tie in the Artistic, Musical, Performance, Language Arts. Use your own brand of teaching and skill set to infuse the science blocks with vibrant life! THE FIVE KEY ELEMENTS OF THE BLOCK 1. THEME. In the arc of your year, each block has some kind of underlying theme or message you want to convey. With anatomy, for instance, my theme combined the geometry of the cylinder and the social value of standing on solid ground. The umbrella themes for the upper grades are WELLNESS, SELF-IDENTITY, and HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS. 2. PERSONAL RELEVANCE. Draw the children in with how learning about their bodies is important to each of them specifically. 3. HISTORICAL OR BIOGRAPHICAL CONNECTION. Acknowledge the work of historical figures who have contributed to the study and progress of the concepts, and those where anatomy or physiology play an important role in their lives. 4. INTRODUCTORY CONCEPTS. These are the actual science concepts you wish to introduce to the students. 5. PATHOLOGY, DISORDER, or SOCIAL CONCERN. Offer examples of the social impact of disease occurrence related to the body. SEVENTH GRADE PHYSIOLOGY LIST OF MAIN LESSON CONCEPTS G7 student main lesson page WEEK ONE: Digestive System - Flow of EARTH 1. The Five Core Values of Food 2.

Spermatogenesis An extra note regarding the Reproductive System: In the week, it was beneficial for the boys and girls to have a break out discussion with the boys and a male teacher, and the girls with a female teacher to discuss more gender-specific concerns. Another option is to have students anonymously place questions in a box for the teacher to answer in a whole group situation. EIGHTH GRADE ANATOMY LIST OF MAIN LESSON CONCEPTS G8 student main lesson page WEEK ONE: Skeletal System 1. Bone Shapes and Function of Protection and Action 2. Bone Growth 3.

Review of Eight Petal Flower of Seventh Grade (This will soon be an eBook!) 2. Fetal Development 3. Maternal Health 4. Biography or Invite someone in your community who is a midwife or who is pregnant! An extra note on Fetal Development: One of our more memorable activities was using a balloon during my presentation and I blew it up to match the size of the uterus as I talked about fetal development. When the uterus was at term, I had the students put their own balloons under their shirts to mimic being pregnant - it was fun and silly. But....serious too - one of the girls whose balloon she wore under her shirt was adjusting it when it slipped out. One of the boys in class, thinking he was funny, grabbed the balloon, and popped it. My female student was visibly upset to lose her baby. So a lesson there for all of us - these things we do for our students really do matter. NOTE: For the G8 Anatomy participants: soon, I will post the illustrations as promised that tie in the different systems. Dr. Rick Tan
