Heart Health
Today we are going to be learning and thinking about ways to keep our hearts healthy and strong!
The Heart
The heart is a muscle, and it works hard to provide the blood their bodies need.
The heart also provides oxygen and nutrients, and rids the body of waste.
Your heart is to the left middle of the chest. (Have students place their hand over their heart to feel the heartbeat)
With each beat, the heart fills with blood and then contracts or tightens to push the blood out.
