Define resting heart rate and describe its relationship to moderate and vigorous activity.
Teaching rates of perceived exertion and pacing/adjusting to keep heart rate in the target zone is made possible in one activity. If technology (e.g., pedometer, heart rate monitor) is available to self-monitor aerobic intensity that will add another standard covered on this lesson but is not necessary to complete this activity.
This activity can be adapted to teach a variety of content for MS and HS in Standards 3 and 4.
You may also access cards and activity plans in a Word or PDF format on the OpenPsyEd.org website in the HS Plug and Play under the heading Module Documents.
