Plant Life Cycle "

☆

Don't Forget The Leaves

Many plants produce flowers. Flowers make seeds. If a seed lands in soil and gets enough water, the seed germinates and a tiny root emerges from the bean seeds, reaching out for moisture and nutrients. It is now a young plant, called a seedling. At first, a seedling gets nutrients from the soil through its roots, but when the leaves start to sprout, it will get its nutrients from the sun through its leaves. The leaves have a tiny green thing called a chlorophyll, which has the magical power to transform sunlight into usable energy for the plant! As the plant receives warmth, moisture, sunlight and carbon dioxide, it is able to transform these elements into energy and oxygen! New leaves emerge, and soon the seedling grows into an adult plant, which produces flowers. As the flowers are pollinated or fertilized, seed pods develop. Seed pods mature and are picked for food by people or naturally split over time and drop the beans onto the ground. That returns the life cycle of the bean plant to its starting point.

Model of a Lung "

Sid’s Amazing Lungs

OBJECTIVE Replicate a working lung with household objects to find out how lungs work SUPPLIES ✓ A plastic bottle ✓ A straw ✓ Rubber band ✓ Scissors ✓ 2 balloons ✓ Modeling Clay PROCEDURE [1]

[2]

[3]

[4]

[5]

[6]

Tie

Cut

1. Cut and remove the bottom of your bottle. 2. Tie a knot in one end of a balloon and cut off the fat end. 3. Stretch the end of the balloon over the bottom of the bottle, securing it with a rubber band. 4. Put a straw in the neck of the other balloon and secure tightly with the rubber band but not so that you crush the straw. The air must flow through so test it with a little bow through the straw to see if the balloon inflates. 5. Put the straw and the balloon into the neck of the bottle and secure with the clay to create a seal around the straw where it exits the bottle cap. 6. You're ready to “breathe!” Hold the bottle and pull the knot of the ballon at the bottom and watch what happens.

65


SID Listening

OBSERVATIONS 1. Pull on the end of the balloon that is wrapped around the bottom of the bottle. What happens? _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ 2. What happens when you release the outside balloon? _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ 3. What do you think of our fake lung experiment? _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ WHY ITS LIKE OUR LUNGS This demonstrates how our lungs work. Air is taken in through the mouth and nose, passes down the windpipe and into our lungs. The diaphragm at the bottom of our chest moves down to create more space. As we breath out the diaphragm raises again. The knotted, cut balloon represents the diaphragm and balloon inside the container is the lung! WHY IT WORKS The Homemade Lung works because of air pressure. When the bottle is sealed off by the balloon on one end and the cap, straw, and balloon at the other, you create a container that is nearly airtight. Air cannot go in or out. As the knotted ballon is pulled it creates more space inside the bottle. Air then comes down the straw and fills the balloon with some air to fill the space! When you let go of the knot the space no longer exist, so the air from the balloon is expelled and deflates. 66

The Journey of Oxygen "

Sid’s Amazing Lungs

INSTRUCTIONS Read the lesson below and fill in the diagram below based on what you’ve learned.

The body system which helps us breathe in oxygen (good air) and breathe out carbon dioxide (bad air) is called the respiratory system, and it includes the mouth, nose, windpipe, and lungs. We breathe in air through our mouth and nose by using a muscle called the diaphragm that works with your lungs to allow you to inhale and exhale air. From the mouth and nose, air passes through our windpipe (or called the trachea) and into the lungs, which are one of the largest organs in your body. You have two lungs, but they aren't the same size. The left lung is a bit smaller than the right lung to have room for your heart. You can't see your lungs, but it's easy to feel them in action: Put your hands on your chest and breathe in very deeply. You will feel your chest getting slightly bigger. Now breathe out the air, and feel your chest return to its regular size. You've just felt the power of your lungs!

The Great Lung Race "

Sid’s Amazing Lungs

OBJECTIVE To understand the effect inhaling has on exhaling. SUPPLIES ✓ dry erase board marker (or colored tape) ✓ paper or tin foil balls ✓ straws PROCEDURE 1. Your teacher will make several lanes for the “race.” 2. A student will be assigned to each lane with a ball placed in front of each “racer” on the edge of the table (the “starting line”). 3. The racers will blow as many times as necessary to get the ball across the table to the “finish line.” Try each of the exhaling methods. 4. The first ball to get across the table or into the center of the bulls eye wins. OBSERVATIONS For each of the races, write your observations on how you inhaled and how you felt at the end of the race. RACE

Asthma Lesson "

Sid’s Amazing Lungs

What happens when someone gets less air? Oxygen (and food) produces energy in our bodies. With less oxygen, we have less energy to do things.

What kinds of things would prevent us from getting the normal amount of air when we breathe? Asthma is a common breathing condition that causes your airways to get smaller making it hard for air to pass through. It only happens sometimes, and doesn’t last for very long (these are called asthma attacks). An asthma attack can be caused by different things for different people: for some it might be triggered by pollen, dust, smoke, exercise, stress, or getting sick.

Asthma Straw Activity "

Sid’s Amazing Lungs

OBJECTIVE To understand what normal breathing is compared to someone with asthma. SUPPLIES ✓ small straw ✓ bubble tea straw PROCEDURE & OBSERVATIONS 1. You will first breathe five deep, normal breaths without a straw. Write your observations about how it feels to breathe. _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ 2. Then breathe five deep breaths out of the bubble tea straw. Is breathing is harder this way? Write your observations about how it feels to breathe. _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ 3. Then breathe five breaths out of the narrow straw and compare it to the previous two situations. Write your observations about how it feels to breathe. This is similar to breathing through smaller airways (like in asthma) but also like having less lung space (like in smoking). Unlike asthma though, which only happens sometimes, smokers have a hard time breathing ALL the time. _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ 70

4. Now we will do the “race� again by blowing the ball across the table to a finish line. Some students will have big straws, little straws and no straws (normal breath). Write your observations about who won. _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ Do you think it would be harder to run around and play if you could only breathe through a straw? _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ INSTRUCTIONS Look at the pictures below and circle the asthma triggers that you identify.
