Standard 2: Analyzing

Influences

Goal 1.1: students will analyze the influence of family, peers, culture, media, technology, and other factors on health behavior

Instructional Activity:

It will start with a brief discussion and/or video that shows athletes monitoring their heart rate to optimize performance.

Learning Objective: by introducing heart rate monitoring as something athletes and professionals use to track performance and stress students will have an opportunity to reflect on their own experiences with physical activity or technology like fitness trackers.

Activity: In pairs, students will use heart rate monitors apps, (such as the one linked above) or manual counting to measure their heart rate at rest and after a simple physical activity.

Post Activity: They will compare the results and record them.

Learning Objective: Students will explore how to measure their own heart rates using technology and manual counting methods.

Barrier Addressed: Lack of technology is handled by pairing students, allowing sharing of devices.

Activity: Students will analysis their results as well as introducing new vocabulary (e.g., aerobic/anaerobic exercise, recovery heart rate).

Learning Objective: Apply these results to their daily lives, family history, and long-term health. Clarify heart rate concepts (Resting Heart Rate, Maximum Heart Rate, Target Heart Rate Zone, etc.) and how lifestyle factors influence heart rate.

Activity: Students will interpret the data they’ve gathered, identifying trends in their heart rates relative to their activity levels. They will explain what those patterns mean in terms of health, using the chart provided. They may also connect it to stress or other real-world factors.

Learning Objective: Help students use heart rate data to interpret patterns and understand the importance of monitoring it.

Cultural Relevance: Encourage students to think about how their family background or cultural factors may influence their health behaviors and heart rate patterns.

Assessment: Conduct a knowledge check through a heart rate test similar to the one from the beginning of the lesson. Compare baseline and post-lesson heart rate knowledge. Students can also reflect in small groups on how their understanding has improved. This will be a formative assessment, not graded but used for tracking progress.

Learning Objective: Assess students’ ability to measure, interpret, and explain heart rate data and adjust lifestyle choices.

This is to get the students heart rate up. They will track the information as the second data point.
