Measuring Up in Physical Education

Help me give my students a scale so that we can complete the Fitnessgram testing requirements and use real data to help them achieve a healthy lifestyle.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Miller's classroom raised $405

This project is fully funded

My Project

The first few weeks of physical education is collecting baseline data of students so that we can create a specific plan of action for our physical education class to benefit all students. While we want the students to be active and play many activities, fitness testing is a major part of the physical education program.

This scale will allow me to save time by weighing, measuring and calculating BMIs all at one time so that we can have more time for games, activities and learning.

This will allow me more time for the students to participate in activities and learn the required material in elementary physical education. All of my students deserve a well rounded physical education program and this equipment will allow me the ability to teach them the importance of being healthy with real life data.
