You don’t need to spend tons of money to teach Human Anatomy. First buy an oversized book. I use this book as a set of posters.
Buy a used anatomy coloring book. Try to find one ‘like new’ or ‘very good’. I’ve purchased several, Anatomy coloring books which did not have any marks at all.
Buy a toy skeleton. Stores put out Halloween decor so early you should be able to buy a skeleton before school starts. The fist lesson is to do a detailed comparison of the skeleton with an atlas to look for errors. Print out a free skeleton to label with sticky notes.
Be sure to print a Brain Hemisphere Hat. Buy clay to make bones and organs.
Additionally, there are inexpensive labs: Nervous Experiment (paperclip), Reaction Times (ruler), Muscle Fatigue (clothespin), Exercise and Cellular Respiration Lab (straw and bromothymol blue),and Digestion Lab.
Yes, you’ll want a microscope and a set of slides. This set of slides is pretty comprehensive.
I have several battery powered microscopes which are essentially toys. I was astounded at the quality of these microscopes.
