Grade 7: November 29th to December 3rd

Grade 7s are studying the circulatory system and all of its components. We will see various video clips related to the circulatory system, google images of the heart and its blood vessels, and run around the school to test our resting and maximum heart rate. We will focus on how to keep our heart healthy and what could make our heart unhealthy (smoking, fast food, lack of exercise). Our culminating activity will be to dissect a sheep's heart! This is always an activity that fascinates students.
