Dr. Debakey and Heart Dissection! Grades 1-3!

Grades 1-3 studied Dr. Michael Debakey's life as a heart surgeon.  During this past Valentine's week, our GT students were able to get a close look at a pig's heart, which can be more similar to an adult human's heart.  We located some important parts on our heart:  aorta, vena cava, atrium, ventricle, valves, and tendons.  Your students were super excited to find these actual parts of the heart!  See the pix following!
