Science- Respiratory System

Today in grade 5 science we made a lung out of every day supplies! This lung showcased how our diaphragm plays a major role in how we breath, and helps our lungs expand and contract! Ask your child how this works or make one at home together! (ps- we used tape instead of clay)
