I’m looking for free foldables—not pirated versions. PaperToys has this Human Body Cut Out (paper doll), a vintage printable with muscles, organs, and tremendous details. Here is a simple Body Systems Foldable, you could adapt with clip art for digital commons, such as this skeleton from Wikimedia Commons or use paper model human systems from Toys from Trash.
Some ‘Foldables’ are paper models. Here is an eyeball, paper model from Ellen McHenry’s Basement webpage. Here are other paper models from her webpage including a realistic ear.
The Human Heart Anatomy lesson is part model, part worksheet. It combines well with this Circulatory System Foldable.
Other foldables are more Interactive Notebooks. I’m still debating whether or not to use Google Slides next year with the Anatomy class to create interactive notebooks. I prefer the kids make their own interactive notebooks with sketches, pix of models, and paper foldables. Here’s the rub. Too often my teens don’t keep track of their notebooks. Instead, discreet projects work better for my crew. (Yes, in some cases I keep work until it’s been completed so it’s not lost.)
My teens and I have been playing (experimenting?) with a tiny, thermal printer. I ordered sticker paper, too. I think this would be perfect for foldables. It’s a work in progress. This post is more musings than concrete plans.
