Science - The Human Body
As part of our ‘Animals including Humans’ topic we have been learning about the human body. We finished this topic by conducting an experiment about the importance of exercise to keep us fit and healthy. We talked about different exercises and carried out a comparative test.
we practised taking our pulse rates by placing two fingers on our wrists. Once we had mastered that skill we went out side to to compare the effects of running, star jumping and skipping on our pulse rates.
We discussed that our pulse rate is a measure of how fast our hearts are beating to pump the blood around our bodies. We also talked about keeping the time interval we tested the same to ensure that it was a fair test.
