God’s Design for Sex Series

The curriculum provides comprehensive biological content about human reproduction, anatomy, and development across age levels. Each book builds systematically from basic concepts about babies and bodies to detailed information about puberty, intercourse, and reproductive systems.

Reviews note the series covers pregnancy, childbirth, genital anatomy with specific terminology, puberty changes, and explicit descriptions of intercourse in age-appropriate progression across the four books.

The curriculum includes extensive guidance for parents through a dedicated parent guide and detailed instructions within each book. Parents receive substantial support for facilitating these conversations.

Reviews describe a comprehensive parent guide 'How & When to Tell Your Kids about Sex' that covers principles, timing, controversial topics, and provides extensive guidance for parents across all age ranges.

The curriculum facilitates direct instruction through guided parent-child conversations and explicit explanations of biological processes. Content is presented clearly rather than through discovery methods.

Books are structured as conversations between parents and children, with clear explanations of sexual biology and development, designed for parents to read aloud and discuss directly with children.

The curriculum explicitly teaches scientific terminology for human anatomy and reproductive processes. Medical and biological terms are introduced appropriately across age levels.

Reviews mention that 'specific terms for genital organs are used' and the series includes 'detailed descriptions and pictures of male and female genitalia and their functions.'

This curriculum does not align with Next Generation Science Standards as it focuses specifically on human sexuality education from a religious perspective rather than comprehensive science education. It addresses only a narrow subset of life science topics.

The curriculum is described as focused exclusively on human sexuality and reproduction from a biblical worldview, not as a comprehensive science curriculum covering NGSS standards.

The curriculum includes some discussion questions at the end of chapters but does not emphasize systematic retrieval practice or spaced review. The focus is on one-time conversations rather than ongoing reinforcement.

Reviews mention that 'each chapter has a few discussion questions that you might use if they seem helpful,' but no systematic review or retrieval practice is described.

This curriculum does not incorporate hands-on activities or lab work as it focuses on human sexuality education through literature and discussion. The approach is entirely text and illustration-based.

Reviews describe the series as consisting of books for reading aloud and discussion between parents and children, with no mention of hands-on activities or experiments.
