Day 04: Transport Team
UNIT ID: FLOW-004
The Oxygen Express
The Pump (Heart)
Your heart is a double-pump system. Right side sends blood to lungs; Left side sends it to the body.
Pulse Log
Resting (15 sec x 4)
Post-Activity (15 sec x 4)
The Vents (Lungs)
Your lungs contain tiny "Alveoli" (air sacs) that are delicate and easily damaged.
Air Quality Scan
List 2 pollutants that damage the "Vents":
Extended Mission: The Recovery Test
An efficient heart recovers quickly. After activity, record how long it takes to return to your resting rate.
Recovery Time (seconds)
*A faster recovery indicates a high-performance transport system!
System Logic: Carbon vs. Oxygen
Explain the "Gas Exchange" that happens in your lungs in your own words:
Did you know? Your left lung is smaller to make room for your heart!
Day 05: Structural Integrity
UNIT ID: FRAME-005
The Power Frame
Bone Density
Bones need "Building Materials" like Calcium and Vitamin D.
Daily Goal
3 servings of dairy/fortified fuel
Extended Mission: The Lever Lab
Muscles pull; they never push. Identify the "Opposing Pairs" that move your limbs:
Arm Flex (Bicep)
Leg Flex (Quad)
Final System Diagnostic
Summarize your "Maintenance Strategy" for each major system to ensure peak performance:

QUEST INITIATED
50-Minute Performance Mode: Engaged.
Day 01
The Command Center
Core Function
Processing signals, managing memory, and keeping your systems running on autopilot.
Extended Mission
The Reaction Relay
Test your brain's processing speed with the Ruler Drop test. Does your 'hard drive' have lag?
Maintenance Tip
Sleep = Reboot
During sleep, your brain clears toxins. Without 9+ hours, your processing speed drops significantly!
Day 02
The Inner Armor
Defense Grid
Skin and White Blood Cells are your frontline security guards.
Extended Mission
The Dirty Dozen
Germs hide on high-traffic surfaces. We will identify the most dangerous "Security Breaches" in our environment.
The 20-Sec Lab
Scrubbing breaks the fatty layer of germs. 20 seconds is the key.
Day 03
The Fuel Station
Intake Cycle
Chewing, Acid Digestion, and Nutrient Absorption. It's a chemical processing plant.
Extended Mission
The Sugar Scan
Acid melts enamel. We will audit a 'High Octane' soda to see just how much damage it does to our Intake Terminal (Teeth).
Dental Maintenance
"Bacteria eat your fuel scraps and poop out acid. Brushing is the only way to evict them!"
Day 04
The Oxygen Express
Dual Pumps
The heart moves 2,000 gallons of blood daily. The lungs swap CO2 for O2. The flow must never stop.
Extended Mission
The Recovery Test
We will jump-start our systems and measure how fast our pump returns to resting speed.
Day 05

206 Bones
Steel Beams of the Body
Extended Mission
Final System Diagnostic
It's time to certify your machine. Complete the full-week diagnostic to earn your Body Boss Badge.
"Proper posture prevents structural fatigue!"

Daily Deep Dive
Day 01: Nervous System Extended: Reaction Relay
Guide the "Reaction Relay." Students use a ruler to test their processing speed. Use the Answer Key to review brain sectors after they finish mapping.
Day 02: Immune & Hygiene Extended: Germ Recon
Discuss the "Dirty Dozen." Have students walk around (or list from their seats) high-traffic germ zones in the room. Review 20-second logic using the key.
Day 03: Digestive & Dental Extended: Sugar Scan
The "Sugar Scan" activity is crucial. Emphasize sugar = acid. Analyze the soda label in the workbook together. Review tooth jobs (Grinders vs. Cutters).
Guide Continues on Page 2
Day 04: Transport Team Extended: Recovery Test
Activity Break: 30 seconds of high-knees. Students MUST find their pulse immediately after to record. Discuss heart efficiency using the recovery data.
Day 05: Structural Frame Extended: Final Diagnostic
Final assessment day. Ensure students complete the "Diagnostic" grid. Grade workbooks using the Quest Rubric for consistency.
Sub Tips for 50 Mins
The Technical Answer Key contains all terminology. Use it to confirm student mapping and logic sections.
The Quest Rubric should be used on Day 5. Focus on Data Log completion and Diagnostic clarity.
Pulse Checks (Day 4) must be calm. Ensure students know how to find their pulse before starting the timer.
Discussion Starters
The "Why"
"Why do we call this a Maintenance Manual instead of just a health book?"
Intake Goal
"If your body is a machine, what's one part you want to keep in the best shape for the next 20 years?"

Day 04: The Oxygen Express Ref: WB Page 5
Recovery Test
Healthy hearts return to resting rate quickly. Athletes typically have lower resting rates and faster recovery times.
Gas Exchange
