Our topic this half term has been Happy Humans. We’ve spent this week learning about the heart and how it pumps blood all around our bodies. Today, we tested how four different exercises affected our heart rate. As well as having a really fun morning, we learned why our pulse increases when we exercise - because the heart is pumping blood around the body quicker than when we are resting! The hardest part for some of us was actually finding our pulse in the first place!!
