Description:

Students will create an experiment to test the increase in their own oxygen consumption after exercise. They will create a set of detailed procedures, list of materials, and a chart to list their observations. They will then follow these procedures and fill in their observation chart.

They will then make a line graph of their oxygen consumption 1) at rest 2) one min. after running up and down the stairs 3) two min. after 4) three min. after.

Timeframe:
1-2 sessions (40 min) Explain & begin to design the experiment
1-2 sessions: Carry out the experiment
