What educators are saying

Great resource, loved the water colors. I wish there was a template for black and white that students could color in. The gray scale template is okay, but it was a little hard for some students to see. This is a really good activity for students to review parts of the heart.
It was a great activity for my junior and senior anatomy students to help them visualize the parts of the heart. They love hands-on activities!

Description

Immerse your students in the intricacies of the circulatory system and human anatomy with the Human Heart Circulatory System STEAM Paper Model Activity. This innovative project combines STEM and STEAM elements, allowing students to construct and label a captivating 3D pop-up card showcasing the parts of a human heart diagram. The end result is not only an impressive addition to interactive notebooks, but also serves as a delightful Valentine's Day or Mother's Day pop-up card or a thoughtful gesture for any occasion.


Designed for middle school students, this heart activity surpasses traditional circulatory system worksheets by offering a hands-on experience that facilitates a profound understanding of the path of blood flow through the human body. The easy-to-follow, three-step instructions, along with a video tutorial link, ensure a seamless assembly process. The printable heart files come in both color and black-and-white versions, catering to various preferences. This project can be completed in just one class period.


In addition to labeling the heart's components using the provided Parts of the Heart Diagram, students can personalize an all-occasion card using the bonus template. The numbered parts, including the left and right atrium, ventricle, aorta, vena cava, pulmonary veins, pulmonary artery, mitral valve, tricuspid valve, and septum, enable a detailed exploration of heart anatomy.

This versatile project extends beyond traditional classroom settings, making it suitable for distance learning or remote teaching using the included Google Slides™. Simply distribute the printable heart pages, and students can follow the instructions or watch the video for assembly using only glue and scissors.

Elevate your anatomy lessons with this unique STEAM project that not only educates but also warms hearts.❤️

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
NGSS4-LS1-1
Construct an argument that plants and animals have internal and external structures that function to support survival, growth, behavior, and reproduction. Examples of structures could include thorns, stems, roots, colored petals, heart, stomach, lung, brain, and skin. Assessment is limited to macroscopic structures within plant and animal systems.
NGSSMS-LS1-3
Use argument supported by evidence for how the body is a system of interacting subsystems composed of groups of cells. Emphasis is on the conceptual understanding that cells form tissues and tissues form organs specialized for particular body functions. Examples could include the interaction of subsystems within a system and the normal functioning of those systems. Assessment does not include the mechanism of one body system independent of others. Assessment is limited to the circulatory, excretory, digestive, respiratory, muscular, and nervous systems.
NGSSHS-LS1-2
Develop and use a model to illustrate the hierarchical organization of interacting systems that provide specific functions within multicellular organisms. Emphasis is on functions at the organism system level such as nutrient uptake, water delivery, and organism movement in response to neural stimuli. An example of an interacting system could be an artery depending on the proper function of elastic tissue and smooth muscle to regulate and deliver the proper amount of blood within the circulatory system. Assessment does not include interactions and functions at the molecular or chemical reaction level.
NGSSMS-LS1-4
Use argument based on empirical evidence and scientific reasoning to support an explanation for how characteristic animal behaviors and specialized plant structures affect the probability of successful reproduction of animals and plants respectively. Examples of behaviors that affect the probability of animal reproduction could include nest building to protect young from cold, herding of animals to protect young from predators, and vocalization of animals and colorful plumage to attract mates for breeding. Examples of animal behaviors that affect the probability of plant reproduction could include transferring pollen or seeds, and creating conditions for seed germination and growth. Examples of plant structures could include bright flowers attracting butterflies that transfer pollen, flower nectar and odors that attract insects that transfer pollen, and hard shells on nuts that squirrels bury.
NGSSMS-LS4-2
Apply scientific ideas to construct an explanation for the anatomical similarities and differences among modern organisms and between modern and fossil organisms to infer evolutionary relationships. Emphasis is on explanations of the evolutionary relationships among organisms in terms of similarity or differences of the gross appearance of anatomical structures.
