Priscilla Lundgren

Priscilla Lundgren holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Mount Saint Mary's University in Los Angeles. With a background in medical research, she worked at UCLA for over 10 years. Priscilla then transitioned to the care of the elderly by running her own senior care business. She later sold the company and retired becoming a stay-at-home mom. Despite her career shift, her passion for biology remains evident in her enthusiastic discussions about the life cycles of viruses. Priscilla loves gardening and cooking for loved ones. She can often be found exploring used book stores and getting overly excited at the produce at the farmers market.

High School Anatomy & Physiology

Ages: 14+

Text: Miller & Levine Biology 2019

This is a one year class.

Note: Once you are signed up for the class, we will be ordering lab kits and that material fee will be non-refundable. ($75)

Homework: Yes! Students will need to read the textbook prior to class as well as complete any labs that weren't completed in class.

NOTE: Students will need to complete a summer assignment prior to classes starting in September to meet their charter school learning period requirements.

Study groups are encouraged to review chapters together and complete any unfinished lab work from the class.

Welcome to High School Anatomy and Physiology!

This class is intended for students who have completed high school Biology and would enjoy learning how bodies work. Please let us know if you need to compare your

Not only is it a great class for personal knowledge, but it also meets 3rd-year science recommendations for college admission.

Students will delve into the intricate workings of the human body, exploring its structure, function, and interrelationships. Through a blend of comprehensive study and laboratory investigations, students will gain an understanding of the complexities of human anatomy and physiology.

Topics:

The Reproductive System
The Integumentary System
The Skeletal System
The Muscular System
The Nervous and Endocrine Systems
The Cardiovascular System
The Lymphatic and Immune Systems
The Respiratory System
The Digestive System
The Urinary System
The Reproductive System

Labs:

We will be performing a number of different labs. From dissecting specimens and identifying systems body parts to conducting physiological experiments, our labs offer hands-on opportunities to deepen understanding and develop scientific inquiry skills.

Class Materials:

All necessary materials, including textbooks, laboratory equipment, and digital resources, will be provided. Students will need access to computers and the internet at home.

Homework:

Anticipate approximately 2 hours of homework per week and there will be assignments during summer, winter, and spring break

We will be integrating the course guide presented by Blue Ridge for AG NGSS Physical Science. Please contact us with your charter school's syllabi so that we can ensure AG requirements are being met. Contact us to receive a full syllabus.
