New IHT watches coming late Nov to early Dec.
Grade 6, 7 and 8 IHT Heart Rate Monitors
Students in grades 6-8 will be using IHT Heart Rate monitors as part of their Physical Education curriculum. Through research, we have discovered that this is the most objective way to observe and grade students on their effort which is really important to our program. These IHT Heart Rate monitors allow students to see how their heart is reacting to physical movement during class. This instant feedback shows the students how hard they need to work in order to get a benefit from the class as well as how to improve their cardiovascular fitness level.
Each student will have their own IHT watch, which instantly tracks heart rate acitivity. The watches are shared with other students but hygiene purposes we clean and sanitize them between each class.
When grading with the IHT straps we take into consideration that students will have varying fitness levels when they come into our class. We adjust the resting heart rates according to the students' fitness level during our resting heart rate lesson so that each student is able to achieve their own personal performance level.
