Breathing Room
Source Institutions
In this health activity, learners explore breathing, lungs and asthma. Learners test their lung capacity by blowing air into balloons.

What's In Your Breath?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners test to see if carbon dioxide is present in the air we breathe in and out by using a detector made from red cabbage.

Chemical Breath
Source Institutions
This is a chemistry lab activity about solutions (page 7 of the PDF). Learners see firsthand how chemicals in a solution can combine to form an entirely different substance.

Sticky Snot
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create slime to model mucus and examine how it collects simulated particles. Mucus keeps particles from the environment out of our lungs when we breathe.

Build a Lung
Source Institutions
Most of the time, we don't have to think about breathing. In fact, you're probably breathing right now without thinking about it!

Breathing Machine
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners work in teams to construct human lung models from small plastic beverage bottles and balloons.

Lungometer
Source Institutions
In this environmental health activity, learners investigate their own vital lung capacities.

Introduction to the Scientific Method
Source Institutions
In this activity (page 26 of the PDF), learners make observations, formulate hypotheses and design a controlled experiment, based on the reaction of carbon dioxide with calcium hydroxide.
