    This document provides instructions for constructing a lung model using common household items. Students will use a plastic bottle to represent the lungs, balloons for the diaphragm and air sacs, and straws for the bronchial tubes. By inflating and deflating the bottom balloon, they can demonstrate how breathing works as the diaphragm contracts and relaxes, drawing air in and pushing it out through the lungs. Guide questions help students understand the purpose of each component and how the model illustrates the process of inhalation and exhalation.

    Activity 1: Lung Model Explain the process of breathing.

    Materials:
    Objectives:
    Construct a Lung Model  Regular 2 L empty (clean) plastic pop bottle
    Explain the process of breathing.  Scissors/ cutter
    Materials:  3 regular-sized balloons
     Regular 2 L empty (clean) plastic pop bottle  Tape (preferably scotch tape)
     Scissors/ cutter  2 plastic straws
     3 regular-sized balloons  2 rubber bands
     Tape (preferably scotch tape)  clay
    Construction:
     2 plastic straws
     2 rubber bands 5. Peel off the label, if any, of the 2 L bottle then cut its base.
     clay 6. Place a regular-sized balloon on a straw and put it inside the bottle.
    Construction: 7. Tape the remaining balloon onto the bottom of the bottle ensuring the seal is air-tight
    8. Holding the bottle, pull and push the plastic bag/ balloon up and down causing the balloon to
    1. Peel off the label, if any, of the 2 L bottle then cut its base. slightly inflate and deflate
    2. Place a regular-sized balloon on a straw and put it inside the bottle.
    3. Tape the remaining balloon onto the bottom of the bottle ensuring the seal is air-tight Guide Questions:
    4. Holding the bottle, pull and push the plastic bag/ balloon up and down causing the balloon to
    1. What does the 2 similar balloons represent?
    slightly inflate and deflate
    2. What does the plastic bottle represents?
    Guide Questions: 3. What does the longer straw represents? How about the 2 shorter straws?
    4. Why do you have to use clay?
    1. What does the 2 similar balloons represent? 5. Is the 3rd balloon important? Why?
    2. What does the plastic bottle represents? 6. What happens when you pull the bottom balloon downward? Why is this so?
    3. What does the longer straw represents? How about the 2 shorter straws? 7. What happens when you push the bottom balloon upward? Why is this so?
    4. Why do you have to use clay? 8. What would happen if there was a hole in one of the balloons? (even in the diaphragm).
    5. Is the 3rd balloon important? Why? 9. How do we breathe?
    6. What happens when you pull the bottom balloon downward? Why is this so?
    7. What happens when you push the bottom balloon upward? Why is this so?
    8. What would happen if there was a hole in one of the balloons? (even in the diaphragm). Make a summary and conclusion of your answers in guide questions.
    9. How do we breathe?
