How Does The Heart Work? 

Your body is the most valuable thing you will ever own. It is our responsibility to keep our bodies fit and healthy (because they have to keep working for a really long time)! This term we are going to find out how best you can do that. Through a range of science investigations and demonstrations we will explore the importance of physical and mental health, wellbeing, and the factors which may affect it.

Components Of Blood

This term, we have been learning about the components of blood. We used sweets to represent each of the components, including white blood cells, red blood cells, plasma and platelets. We have explored the functions of each of these components and how they support the human body.

Following on from our previous learning, we have learnt how the heart functions in the human body. We have been determined to name the chambers of the heart. We have explained our understanding of the circulatory system, using scientific vocabulary to do so.
