Create a Model of the Heart

Materials Required:
Red and blue play dough
Paper and markers for labeling
Tools for shaping play dough (optional: plastic knives, rolling pins)
Steps Involved:
Use red play dough to create the main body of the heart, including the left and right atria and ventricles.
Use blue play dough to represent the veins and arteries connected to the heart.
Shape the play dough to illustrate the major components such as the aorta, pulmonary arteries, and veins.
Label each part of the heart on a piece of paper and attach it to the corresponding section of the play dough model.
Discuss the function of each part of the heart and how blood flows through it.
Display the model and review the heart’s structure and functions as a class.
