Texto del Guión Gráfico
- Hey Lily, can you help me with my science homework? I have a worksheet about calcium.
- Of course! Lets go to a classroom to start the worksheet.
- The first question on my worksheet is, what is calcium?
- Calcium is a mineral, more specifically a major mineral. Meaning that we need more then 100mg of it per day.
- The next question is, where is it found?
- The best sources of calcium are in dairy products (cheese, milk), however it can also be found in dark leafy vegetables.
- The third question is, what does it do for the body?
- Calcium helps build and maintain strong bones and teeth. Your heart, muscles and nerves also need caalcium to function properly.
- The final question is, why is it important?
- Calcium is important because if you dont get enough, your body starts to take calcium from your bones. This is called losing bone mass.
- Oh no! That sounds bad.
- Yes, it is bad, losing bone mass makes the inside of your bones weak and porus, This puts you at risk for osteroporosis, a bone disease.
