Students investigate the specific elements found in food that keep us healthy.  In this healthy eating activity, students identify proteins, carbohydrates, minerals, and vitamins as part of a healthy diet when consumed in...

Students view a Magic School Bus video that teaches about the digestive system. They create a life-size model of the digestive system.

For this internal systems and regulation worksheet, students correctly decide if given statements are true or false. Students apply information learned about the circulatory system to the given statements to determine statements of truth...

Pupils examine how muscles can work together with joints.  In this movement lesson students use a marionette to observe how muscles work. 

Seventh graders become more familiar with how our food is broken down mechanically and chemically. They also trace the food through the alimentary canal.

Students record their pulse rate. In this circulatory system lesson, students use a piece of clay and a straw to make their pulse move visible and easier to accurately count and record.
