Grade 5 - Hard Working Heart

It beats like a drum supporting all life.  Join us on a cardiovascular journey.  Explore parts of the heart and how it works using a plasticized real pig's heart.  Compare real heart specimens and see if you can identify the creature it belonged to?  Partner up in a fun activity to test your pulse.  Participate in experiments that explore the heart as a pump and how red blood cells travel through the circulatory system.  Identify common diseases of the heart and circulatory system and preventative measures we can take one beat at a time.
