Heart Rate Monitors are the Perfect Tools for Fitness Labs

My students need four handheld heart rate sensors and four heart rate straps for STEM based fitness labs.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Snodgrass's classroom raised $921

My Students

I am very fortunate to teach the students of this community. They are motivated, inquisitive and really enjoy collaborating when given a project. Recently, my students have come up with their own kid-inspired lab idea for a STEM based fitness lab that uses heart rate sensors.

The students appreciate the opportunity to use the STEM lab equipment because it allows them to use technology while collaborating and using critical thinking to produce results which help prepare them for the future.

My Project

This kid inspired lab is a wonderful opportunity for my biology students to combine fitness and technology. Many of my students have researched heart rate sensors and want to create a lab that measures heart rate before, during, and after exercise.

My student's plan is for half of the class to use the handheld heart rate monitors and other half will use the heart rate straps to collect and graph incoming data during physical fitness labs.

The Vernier Go Wireless Exercise Heart Rate are excellent hands-free technology tools for continuously monitoring heart rate. This equipment is simple and easy to use and displays live heart rate readouts before data collection.Also, the chest strap is ideal for running, cycling, and other physical activities.
