P6/7 Heart Rate Investigation

6th Apr 2017

P6/7 have been learning all about the circulatory system and how our body gets and uses oxygen. We planned and carried out an investigation to find out how exercise affects our heart rate.

After finding our resting heart rate, by taking our pulse for 1 minute (or 30 seconds and multiplying it by 2), we ran for 4 minutes and then checked our pulse every two minutes until it returned to normal.

Have a look at our results in some of our continuous line graphs we made using Excel.
