This TED-Ed learning activity guides students through the explanation of how the pancreas works in keeping us alive.
Beneath your ribs, you’ll find, among other things, the pancreas--an organ that works a lot like a personal health coach. Emma Bryce explains how this organ controls your sugar levels and produces a special juice that releases the nutrients from your food to help keep you in the best possible shape.
The activity includes a video, multiple choice and open-ended questions, additional resources to dig deeper, and a guided discussion.
This alignment results from the ALEX Health/PE COS Resource Alignment Summit.
