HOMESCHOOL REVIEW CREW: OUR REVIEW OF Greg Landry's Homeschool Science

I received this complimentary product through the Homeschool Review Crew


     Science has always been a subject that I was apprehensive about teaching. I did well when I was in school but didn't always feel like I could teach it well.  That is why I absolutely love when I find online classes that teach science and truly care about what they are teaching to my kids. When we were given the opportunity to receive 12 months of access to Exercise & Sports Physiology, one of Greg Landry's Homeschool Science classes from his Self-paced 7th-12th grade half-semester classes, I was thrilled.  This homeschool science lab is an absolute asset to my daughter.  

     


     Hope is 14 and heading into the 10th grade.  She has been interested in Physiology for a while now.  She has her own gym in our basement and loves lifting weights and pounding on our punching bag.  She gets her dad to spare with her on occasion, but she is really good so she's a bit intimidating 😉 This class was a perfect fit for her as learning about the body and how exercise affects the body is important to her right now. 

          Greg Landry is a husband, dad, and former college professor.  He created these classes to assist homeschooling moms and dads in teaching. He loves teaching science and his heart for God shines through in his classes.  These classes are Creation based. He wants us all to know that God created us for a purpose.  As a mentor and teacher, he encourages students both now and in the past to explore God's amazing handiwork.  He is also a homeschooling father, so he knows the needs of parents who also homeschool their children. That is a huge plus!!! 

     The class we are reviewing today is Exercise & Sports Physiology  This self-paced class is great for students.  They can learn on their own and not feel rushed.  The online class is easy to set up.  All you have to do is download Canvas and create an account.  It is simple, so don't feel overwhelmed by that.  Once you have your account you just log in and the classes you have subscribed to will be right there. You will also be able to contact Gary through the inbox on your account. AWESOME HUH?






     Just click on your class and off you go.  There is an introductory video for you and your child to watch before beginning the actual classes.  It will help you learn more about the program. 

     You will also have a study guide pdf to download and/or print out for your student.  This is needed to take the class. Your student will take notes and prepare for test-taking. There is also a video for each chapter that your student can watch as many times as they like. 


     The Exercise & Sports Physiology includes classes such as:

  • Taking notes, note sketching and studying
  • Bones, muscles, and training
  • VO2 Max, training, cellular respiration, and the anaerobic threshold
  • Heartrate, training, and cardiovascular function
  • Energy expenditure, glycogen & respiratory function in training
  • Live high - train low, and training in hot environments
  • Ergogenic aids
   
     We are on summer break right now so Hope has been going through the classes at a slower pace than we normally would.  She is excited to get on a faster pace next week when we start our new school year and so far she says she has learned so much from the classes she has taken.  She feels more confident as she exercises. She feels this class will help her get a jump start on her career as well.  She wants to eventually help others train in weight lifting and such. Her favorite part of the class so far is learning how note sketches work.  She said "Mom taking notes can be fun."
