In this health and fitness activity, learners focus on the importance of daily physical activity, specifically walking.

In this activity, learners explore and experiment how we can use our bodies everyday to get from one place to another.

Put math of measurement into lining up — and make waiting in line fun. Choose a size characteristic that learners can physically compare, such as foot length or hair length.

In this activity, learners will train to improve lung, heart, and other muscle endurance as they walk a progressive, measured distance.

In this quick activity, learners take a balance challenge to measure their average balance time. As they collect data, they investigate how practice and repetition improve their balance time.

In this activity, learners take their own pulse and explore how heart rate is affected by various activities.

In this activity, learners compare ways to measure their heart rates. Learners build their own stethoscopes and learn how exercise affects heart rate.

In this health activity, learners create a device so that they not only feel their heartbeat, but also see it, using a straw and some clay.

In this online activity, learners measure their pulse rates and investigate how their pulses change when they engage in different activities.

In this experiment, pairs of learners explore how cold water affects circulation. The mammalian diving reflex (MDR) slows circulation when the body is exposed to cold water.

In this activity, learners discover how their heart rate changes in different situations.

In this activity about heart health (on page 27 of the PDF), learners measure their heart rates after a variety of physical activities and compare the results with their resting heart rates, and with
