How do you study Human Anatomy?

The best way to study human anatomy is by learning it in short sections. You can even take a full school year to really immerse your kids in the topic. A perfect way to do this is by introducing a new body system each week

A printable pack is also a great tool to aid in learning and presenting new material. We always love gathering up free printables and activities to create science unit studies for our kids. 

Our team has put together some amazing free printable anatomy worksheets. There are vocabulary copywork notebooks, human body notebooking research journals, labeling and diagramming worksheets and more. 

Science coloring pages are also a great way for visual learners to better understand a science concept. You may have a child that is not a fan of writing out definitions. They may do better reading fun facts and then coloring what they are reading.

Human Organs Coloring Pages

This set of Human Organ Coloring Pages has informational text for each organ. It includes the following facts on each coloring sheet in an easy-to-read font for your kids:

Brain Coloring Page

The human brain weighs 3 pounds and is made up of 60% fat. The brain is where we do our thinking. All our senses are tied into our brain allowing us to experience the outside world. The biggest part of the brain is the cerebrum. The cerebrum is the thinking part of the brain and it controls your voluntary muscles.

Heart Coloring Page

Your heart is really a muscle. It’s located a little to the left of the middle of your chest, and it’s about the size of your fist. Your heart is sort of like a pump, or two pumps in one. The right side of your heart receives blood from the body and pumps it to the lungs. The left side of the heart does the exact opposite: It receives blood from the lungs and pumps it out to the body.

Lungs Coloring Page

Your lungs are in your chest, and are so big that they take up most of the space in there. You have two lungs, but they aren’t the same size. Instead, the lung on the left side of your body is a bit smaller than the lung on the right. This extra space on the left leaves room for your heart.

Intestines Coloring Page

The intestines are part of the digestive system of the body. They are sometimes called the guts or bowels. This system deals with all the food and drink that you take into your body. The intestines are the part of the digestive system. You have a small and large intestine.

Liver Coloring Page

The liver is a spongy organ, or body part, in all vertebrates, or animals with a backbone. The liver does many important jobs. It cleans your blood and produces an important digestive liquid called bile. It stores energy in the form of a sugar called glycogen.

Stomach Coloring Page

The stomach is like a mixer, churning and mashing together all the small balls of food that came down the esophagus into smaller and smaller pieces. The stomach breaks down food using chemicals and enzymes before it’s passed into the small intestines.

Kidneys Coloring Page

Kidneys normally come in pairs. If you’ve ever seen a kidney bean, then you have a pretty good idea what the kidneys look like. And they are busy! They are like washing machines for the blood in the body. The kidneys filter the blood and take out all the waste in the blood.
