Things we did:
- identified the parts of the heart
- learned the circulatory pathway
- learned about systolic and diastolic pressures
- checked our own resting and non-resting heart rates using stethoscopes
- found our carotid and ulnar pulse using our fingers. Our resting heart rate was much slower.
- identified a few diseases of the heart: hypertension, coronary artery disease, ventricular tachycardia, afibrillation, heart attacks
- colored, cut and glued our heart on to our body.
