The Circulatory System - Part I
First graders consider what effect their behavior has on their health. Students make a fist to indicate the size of his/her heart. They complete a worksheet on the heart, coloring the arteries red and the veins blue.
Curated OER
Blood Cell Basics
Students design a proportional model of blood out of red gelatin, a plastic bag, and rice. They study the components that make up blood and investigate what happens when the arteries in different scenerios. They work in pairs in order to...
Curated OER
Blood Moving from Heart Around Body Simulation
Students review circulation and blood flow patterns from different parts of the body. They play a game using colored yarn and index cards to simulate blood flow, oxygenated blood, arteries and veins.
Curated OER
Blood Pressure and Heart Disease
Students explore the major causes of heat attacks as the topics of the human circulatory system, blood pressure, heart disease, arteries and veins are examined. Opinions on the topics are developed as researched material is presented to...
Curated OER
Introduction to the Circulatory System
Fifth graders analyze the components of the circulatory system. They take notes as they watch a video on blood and circulation. Students discuss the human circulatory system, including blood, veins, arteries, capillaries and the heart.
Curated OER
Versatile Veined Prints
Learners compare and contrast prints with original art. As a class, they discuss what life would be like if the printing process had never been invented. To end the lesson, they practice making their own printed paper and share them with...
Curated OER
How Does Blood Circulate?
Fifth graders investigate the path of their blood through their heart and body. In this heart lesson, 5th graders recognize that blood travels in one direction through arteries and one through veins. Students complete worksheet about...
Curated OER
Your Beating Heart - Circulatory System
Students illustrate a schematic circulatory system of a human body including heart, lungs, arteries, veins and capillaries. Next, students conduct an experiment to increase understanding of the relationship between heart rate/pulse and...
Curated OER
Comedy Across the Curriculum
The New York Times Learning Network provides the resources that permit pupils to examine and then write and perform a fake news broadcast in the vein of “The Daily Show” or “Saturday Night Live” Weekend Update. The generated reports...
Texas Heart Institute
Anatomy: How Does the Cardiovascular System Work?
How can the circulatory system compare to a city map? Pupils distinguish the "roadways" and "vehicles" of the cardiovascular system, compare the anatomy and function of veins and arteries, and review different types of blood cells with...
Curated OER
Circulatory and Respiratory Systems Unit - Biology Teaching Thesis
Students Explain how an increased level of activity translates to cells needing more oxygen and how the lungs supply this oxygen by entering the blood stream. They also can explain that the heart is responsible for moving both oxygenated...
Curated OER
Science: Put Your Heart into Engineering
Students examine the heart and vascular system and the need for artificial valves. After explaining how heart valves function, they design their own heart valves for experimentation. They predict the speed of fluid flowing through...
Curated OER
Identifying Wyoming Trees
Students identify trees based from their leaves. In this leaf lesson plan, students use The Rocky Mountain Tree Finder by Tom Watts in order to identify tree leaves. They look for leaf shapes, veins, and structure.
Curated OER
More about Arteries, Veins and Capillaries
Students list and describe the purpose/function of blood vessels (arteries, veins and capillaries). They explain how blood flows through the body, and the role of physical activity and how it strengthens the heart.
Curated OER
Respiratory and Circulatory System
While this presentation is designed to be used in conjunction with a series on the respiratory and circulatory system, it could be used as a way to review the functions of the heart, lungs, veins, and arteries. The graphics are well-done...
Academy of American Poets
We Sing America
Pair the famous poems "I Hear America Singing," by Walt Whitman, and "I, Too, Sing America," by Langston Hughes, with a more recent poem by Elizabeth Alexander called "Praise Song for the Day" to demonstrate a theme and introduce your...

The Relationship of Multiplication and Division
Take any number, multiply it by five, and then divide by five. Did you end up with the original number? In the same vein as the previous lesson, pupils discover the relationship between multiplication and division. They develop the...
Curated OER
Looking at Leaves Lesson 1
Fourth graders visit an outdoor area and compare/contrast two different leaves using Venn diagrams. They create tree leaf rubbings from their leaves and examine their vein structures or needle patterns.
Curated OER
The Heart of the Matter
Students study the heart and the circulatory system. They practice taking their pulse. They create a model of blood cells and squeeze tennis balls to demonstrate just how hard the heart muscle works.
Curated OER
Cardiac Maze
Students participate in a role-play activity to lean about red and white blood cells, veins, capillaries and arteries. They also see how blood passes through the heart, lungs and out of the body, carrying oxygen and nutrients.
Science Matters
You Gotta Have Heart
Here's a activity that's not for the faint of heart! The seventh activity in a larger series introduces learners to the circulatory system with a study of the heart anatomy. Using a pig heart, individuals identify the different...
Science Matters
Heart to Heart
It's time to get to the heart of the matter! After introducing the heart anatomy in the previous lesson in a series on the systems of the body, the lesson looks at the specifics. Learners complete a series of six activities to study the...
Curated OER
Circulatory System,
Fourth graders study the components and physiology of the human circulatory system.
