Fifth graders demonstrate how to find their pulse and count the beats after a certain amount of time. In cooperative pairs, 5th graders use a stopwatch to keep track of their partner's heart rate in seconds. Pairs make a graph from their...

In this electrical instructional activity, students answer a series of 6 open-ended questions about pulse-width signal generators. This instructional activity is printable and the answers are revealed online.

Students take their pulse rates. In this graphing lesson, students take their pulse rates and graph them. Students do various physical activities and graph the differences in their pulse rates.

Young scholars examine human blood flow by comparing the pulse of athletes.  In this human body lesson, students discover the equation for finding the cardiac output from a human heart.  Young scholars identify heart rates of...

Fifth graders make a graph. In this pulse rate lesson plan, 5th graders estimate their pulse and record it. Students measure their pulse while at rest and after physical activity and record it. Students use the internet to graph their...

Learners review terminology: pulse, heart rate, target heart rate zone. They work in three groups, and assigned to one of three activity stations. At 5-minute intervals, 4th graders check their pulse and record it on their group...

Algebra learners like this resource because it is easy to understand and it relates to their lives. Whether you are starting a new workout routine, or just climbing the stairs, your heart rate increases and decreases throughout the day....

Time to take a pulse check. The mid-module assessment allows pupils to check where their knowledge falls for the first portion of the module. The 10th resource in a series of 23 covers content from the binomial theorem to hyperbolas....

Students explore mathematical operations while studying nutrition. For this physical fitness lesson, students explore calories, pulse rate, and the circulatory system. Students use mathematical data to create a healthy physical fitness...

Learners measure and calculate heart rates per minute and for other units of time. They determine the amount of blood pumped by their heart during various intervals of time.

Students investigate where the blood in our hearts travels by observing a diagram in class.  In this cardiovascular lesson, students examine their own heart by checking their pulse in class.  Students investigate a human body...

Pupils participate in various activities, measuring their pulse rates and recording the data. They analyze the statistical concepts of mean, median, mode, and histograms using the data from the cardiovascular activities.

Students measure their pulse rates and place the number on the board. They arrange the numbers in order and discuss the differences between isolated facts and data. Students explore websites that relate to data analysis and report their...

Students explore heart rates. They record pulse rates, predict which exercises cause a faster heart rate, make a chart, and graph the results. Students write an essay using the data to support their predictions. They write a hypothesis...

Students review the units of the metric system, and practice estimating measures before actually converting between the two systems of measurement. They participate in activities to visualize a concentration of one part per million....
