As you know, we are studying Human Anatomy this year and meet weekly with 2 other families to do experiments and activities together that go along with our text. So, we just finished the chapter on respiration…AND, one of the families in our group happens to have cattle and do butchering! What luck! 🙂 She’s such a good friend to keep cow lungs, heart and eyeballs in her fridge for us. True love.
Aren’t you glad you stopped by my blog today?!?!

I am so glad I stopped by your blog today! I called all the kids over to see your lungs! Eewww, yuk what is that Mom? So we had a very mini lesson on the lungs. Thanks so much for the pictures!

Candace!
You need a disclaimer before seeing that. Yuck!
However, I must admit we were quite fascinated with the great pictures. I too called all the kids into look at them. We have cows also, but the go to the market to be sold for beef. One boy knew right away it went to a cow.
They have one question for you…Did it smell the house up?
Thanks for sharing!!

I was just looking at your blog and thinking how pretty it is. You always make is so fresh and inviting. And then this post! LOL What a cool experiment – and even cooler that a friend is doing it so you don’t have to. (Or at least that would be *my* take on it!)
Hugs to you!

Candace,
Ha, I didn’t even see what you wrote…I love reading your blog and I knew you were doing it and totally missed the title, not that I wouldn’t have looked being an RN.
It really looked like a human lung, very interesting.

It’s totally amazing. I just loved it though it was quite scary. how did the children manage to collect their courage to do it.DID THEY SLEEP THAT NIGHT???
