Breathing and the Respiratory System - 7 Game Compendium KS3
A compendium of seven, enjoyable and challenging games on breathing and the respiratory system. Each game is fully resourced, suitable for all abilities, comes with full instructions and is easy to run.
Games Included
Find the Pair
Dominoes
Smart Board Bingo

Wildcard & Snap
What’s Covered
Breathing is movement of air in and out of the lungs.
Respiration is the release of energy from glucose.
Breathing provides the oxygen for aerobic respiration and gets rid of waste carbon dioxide.
Label the trachea, right bronchus, bronchiole, alveolus, intercostal muscle, rib, diaphragm.
Label a diagram of an alveolus and show the direction of diffusion of oxygen and carbon dioxide.
Experiment using limewater to compare the amount of carbon dioxide in inhaled and exhaled air.
Compare the percentage of oxygen, carbon dioxide and nitrogen in inhaled and exhaled air.
Mechanism of breathing.
Changes in volume and pressure inside the chest during inhalation and exhalation.
Evaluate a model of the mechanism of breathing.
This versatile pack can be used to reinforce knowledge and understanding at the end of the topic or for revision. Many of the games could be used for cover lessons, even when taken by a non-specialist as they come with a hard-copy or PowerPoint of the answers. It is also the ideal end of term/year pack.
