    Measuring Effort: 
    -We will be focusing on the five components of fitness and will begin by measuring your growth in all components.
    -We will compare your pre-fitness testing data to your post-fitness testing data and look for improvement.
    -It will be expected that you demonstrate an understanding of the rules of each game/activity and participate consistently 
    -HR Zones will be used every day and sent as a report at the end of class.  Your daily grade will be based on your intensity points earned during your class. 
    -Behavior will also be monitored throughout each class and graded through your CRP every two weeks. 

     

    HR Zones: 
    -Grading will be assessed through the HeartZones Monitoring System. 
    -Daily HeartZones FITT ( Frequency, Intensity, Time, Type) points are calculated using the formula below

    Ex. 

         3.4                      x         1         x          60               = 204 points 
    (yellow zone)                frequency          minutes                 (FIIT)
                                        (class Period)      (will vary)

    -Daily grades will be input into Genesis on a 0 - 10 scale.
    -204/204 = 100% or a score of 10 for the day.
    -Individual arm bands are available for purchase through MySchoolBucks

    • If you are physically or medically unable to participate and submit a DOCTOR/NURSE’S NOTE, adjustments will be made.
