Classroom Spotlight: Fitness in Action with Mr. Shotts!

Our fifth graders put their hearts into learning during Mr. Shotts’s Polar GoFit Fitness Stations lesson!

Students wore heart rate monitors as they rotated through stations focused on cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, and muscular endurance. Using their heart rate data, they observed how their bodies responded to different exercises and identified which activities caused their heart rates to rise the most. They also learned about resting and maximum heart rates, connecting physical activity with an understanding of how their hearts work.

Our fifth graders worked incredibly hard throughout the lesson, and their effort showed in their heart rate data. Great job, fifth grade, and thank you, Mr. Shotts, for bringing fitness and learning together!
