JUMPSTART - Heart, Blood and Lungs

 For Jumpstart 2020 we have been exploring the functions of the heart and blood, how it circulates around the body and is filled with oxygen by the lungs in a closed circuit system called the cardiovascular system.

We learnt about the structure and function of the heart and how it does one of the most vital and important jobs in our body. 

To extend the learning of this topic, we were able to get some real sheep hearts and lungs from AFFCO and have a fun, hands-on and interactive experience where the students were able to see, feel and explore how the heart and lungs work.

It has been a very fun topic which I think most of the students enjoyed, however, some have said they might become vegetarians now.

Attached are some cool photos of the students in 9K engaging with this topic. Ka mau te wehi!
