  1. Introducing theHEART

  2. Teachers in Residence Programme • Deirdre Halleran and Sinéad Ní Mhullaoidh Unit 5A: Keeping Healthy

  3. Today WE will build a medical device to fix a broken heart!

  4. The heart is a muscle in the middle of your chest

  5. Your heart is as big as your fist.

  6. Heart Facts 46 years! Your heart beats: 100,000 times in one day 35 million times in a year 2.5 billion times during an average lifetime How many years would you have to leave the kitchen tap running to equal the amount of blood your heart pumps during an average lifetime?

  7. Your Pulse Can you find your pulse? Your pulse is blood stopping and starting as it moves through your arteries 90 to 120 beats per minute for kids 72 beats per minute for adults In general, fitter hearts have lower beats

  13. Medical Devices

  14. Activity 1: Heart Twister Right Atrium Left Atrium Right Ventricle Left Ventricle

  15. Step 1: Draw a Big Heart 120cm 120cm

  16. Step 2: Divide into Four Sections Use blue lines on the right side because the blood does not have oxygen Use red lines on the left side because the blood has oxygen

  17. Step 3: Label the Four Chambers Right Atrium Left Atrium Right Ventricle Left Ventricle

  18. Play the Game! • Spin the dial • Place your hand or foot on the correct chamber of the heart Right Atrium Left Atrium Right Ventricle Left Ventricle

  19. Activity 2: Fix a Heart Attack Right Atrium Left Atrium Right Ventricle Left Ventricle

  20. Step 1: Draw Damage on the Left Ventricle Right Atrium Left Atrium Right Ventricle Left Ventricle
