This week the kids will see how special an organ the heart is and how hard it works. They will understand that the heart is virtually a pump in a closed loop system.   Each student will learn how to calculate their pulse rate at rest and see how exercise affects their pulse rate.  Lastly, the class will sequence the flow of blood to and from the heart.
