11. When I say “go”… Head directly to your area and if your name is in green pick up your group’s materials on your way. Work with group members to put the steps in the correct order. When you are sure about the order, put the pieces on the tape. Have your “runner” bring the tape strip to me. Return to your seat and wait for the rest of the groups to finish. The group that has them in the correct order the fastest will win a treat.

13. Step 1- The blood is pumped from the heart to the lungs Step 2- Carbon Dioxide goes out of the blood and into the lungs and oxygen goes from the lugs into the blood. Step 3- The oxygenated blood goes back to the heart and the heart pumps it to the rest of the body. Step4- Blood also goes to the small intestines and picks up food. The blood carries the food and oxygen to all the cells in the body so the cells can burn the food for energy. Step 5- After the blood gets rid of the food and oxygen, it goes back to the heart and the heart pumps it to the lung and it starts all over again.
