Videos/Animations about the Heart & Lungs

Videos & Animated resources for demonstrating how the heart works. Ventricles, valves, blood flow, and lungs are the stars of these presentations. These would be appropriate for upper elementary students.

http://www.neok12.com/php/watch.php?v=zX7a08025104407275797477&t=Circulatory-System (Decent animation with a guy in a doctor’s uniform explaining the animation.)

http://www.neok12.com/php/watch.php?v=zX06707e06626a48527c7145&t=Circulatory-System (Shows the “route” of a single red blood cell demonstrating how it goes from the left to the right through the body & back again.)

I just discovered "Magic Box Abirami" on YouTube
Sooo cute! GREAT animations & narrations for young children about every part of the body.
