Pollution and Lung Health
Students investigate how pollution affects lung health. In this pollution and lung health instructional activity, students build lung models from a soda bottle and balloons, and then discuss how the emissions from fossil fuels can...
Baylor College
Breathing Machine
Take a deep breath and have your class construct working models of a lung! Using 500ml plastic bottles as the chest cavity, and balloons for the lung and the diaphragm, learners work in groups to make a model. The models help them to...
Curated OER
Lungs: The Breathing Machine
Students create a model of the lungs and diaphragm. For this breathing lesson, students create a model out of a plastic bottle and balloons. They see how the diaphragm helps to fill the lungs with air.

Diaphragm-Relax And Breathe
Students examine breathing. For this diaphragm lesson students complete a lab that shows them how lungs breathe.
Curated OER
Pollution and Lung Health
Young scholars study how lungs and a diaphragm work to make them breathe. In this pollution lesson students build a lung model and learn three things they can do to protect themselves from the effects of fossil fuels.
