Suzy Teaches us about Lungs.

This is Suzy Cato. Today, we watched her show called Suzy's World. She taught us some interesting things about how our lungs work. We took some notes as we watched the show.

We learnt that...
Air travels down our oesophagus into our lungs.

We have two lungs.

When we breathe in, our lungs expand - they get bigger.
When we breathe out, our lungs shrink - they get smaller.

Oxygen is in the air we breathe. If we don't have oxygen, we can't survive.

We went for a run around the junior team playground.
After we ran, we found that our breathing changed. Our breathing got faster, our tummy and chest moved up and down quiockly, and felt hot.

We love learning about our body!!!
