Make It MeasurableWhat gets measured gets
managed

• Students will learn and understand the benefits
  of developing and measuring personal fitness
  goals and why fitness is different and unique for
  everyone.

2
Goals and Objectives

1. The student will be able to identify and explain
   the five components of fitness.
2. The student will be able to provide at least one
   example of a fitness test for each of the five
   components of fitness.
3. The student will be able to identify a minimum of
   three methods of testing for body composition and
   the pros and cons of each.
4. The student will be able to explain the
   correlation between body composition and fitness
   test scores.
5. The student will be able to design an individual
   fitness chart using spreadsheet excel or a table
   from a word document to chart the progress of
   personal fitness goals.

UbD Rational

• I feel that the UbD model opened up a gateway for
  me to develop a better, more in-depth lesson that
  could easily be split up into multiple lessons.
  As I review my essential questions and enduring
  understandings I get more lesson plan ideas
  making for a more efficient unit. I feel the UbD
  model is very organized yet flexible. I feel it
  allows teachers to think more freely and be
  creative getting away from the traditional design
  of lessons. It forces teachers to really think
  about what we want our students to learn from our
  lessons other than the standard "traditional"
  classroom content.

UbD Rational

• In the PAST

• Using the UbD model

• Ive had students develop charts but without
  fitness goals to tie into it
• I didnt discuss alternative methods of measuring
  body composition but simply discussed the
  bio-electrical impedance method since that is
  what we use in class
• The flow of the lesson was off when presenting
  the hussmanfitness website

• Students develop charts to tie in with at least
  three fitness goals
• There is a class discussion about the pros and
  cons of the different methods for measuring body
  composition
• The lesson has a better flow where all parts tie
  together to the unit including the essentials
  questions and enduring understandings
• Charting takes place throughout the course of the
  semester and is graded every 6 weeks encouraging
  motivation and student growth

7
BIG Ideas

• Students will learn how body composition, the
  components of fitness, and fitness test
  assessments all relate to enhance ones physical
  fitness
• Students will learn the importance of measuring
  fitness levels, how to measure fitness components
  and why it is beneficial for success.

• My big ideas

8
Enduring Understandings

• Using self assessment strategies for monitoring
  and improving health related fitness will
  contribute to improved health throughout ones
  lifetime.
• Creating personal fitness conditioning sheets
  along with using appropriate technology to
  enhance the accuracy of fitness test measurements
  will increase the likelihood of developing and
  maintaining a healthy fitness level.

• My enduring understandings

9
Essential Questions

1. What determines a healthy level of physical
   fitness?
2. Do physical fitness values change depending on
   what part of the world you come from?
3. Are you physically fit?
4. Are all means of calculating body composition
   created equal?
5. Which is better for improving body composition
   and fat lose- aerobic or resistance training?
6. How will different fitness levels affect your
   life?

10
Knowledge and Skills Gained

• Five Components of Fitness
• Provide at least one example of a fitness test
  for each
• Body Composition
• Design and Implement Individual Fitness Chart

11
5 Components of Fitness

• 1. Cardiovascular Endurance the ability of the
  heart, lungs and blood vessels to function
  efficiently when a person exercises the body
• example PACER test, 12 minute run, mile run
• 2. Muscular Strength the amount of force a
  muscle can produce
• example bicep curl
• 3. Muscular Endurance the ability to contract
  the muscles many times without tiring or to hold
  one contraction for a long time
• example curl ups, push ups, pull ups, hang
  (these may fall into the muscular strength
  category depending upon number done)
• 4. Flexibility the ability to move the joints
  through a full range of motion a part of fitness
  that requires long muscles
• example sit and reach
• 5. Body Composition the make-up of the body
  tissue, including muscle, bone, fat and all other
  body tissue
• example tanita scale

12
Body Composition

• Height-weight tables
• Body mass index charts (BMI)
• Body mass in kilograms divided by (height x
  height in meters)
• Girth measurements
• Skinfold measurements
• Bioelectrical impedance analysis (ie. tanita
  scale)
• Hydrostatic Weighing

• The following are different methods of measuring
  body composition
• Factors to consider when assessing calculations
• - accuracy
• - reliability
• - cost
• - availability

13
Basil Metabolic Rate (BMR)

• Everyone log onto the web and go to
  www.hussmanfitness.org
• Go to 4 The Fridge
• Go to How Calories Work
• Read information on BMR and type in information
  from fitness logs to determine your BMR

14
Assessing Student Knowledge

• Formal Assessment

• Self Assessment

• Written quiz
• - students will take a written quiz where they
  must identify the 5 components of fitness and
  provide examples of fitness tests for each. There
  will also be a question where students need to
  discuss the different means of measuring body
  composition and justify their position as to
  which is the best method and why they prefer it.

• Students will be given time each week to reflect
  on their progress and make any adjustments needed
  to their fitness charts
• Charts will be reviewed every 6 weeks (grading
  period) to check for adjustments, progress etc.
  and will be worth 5 points every check up
  totaling 20 points by the end of the semester

15
Assessing Student Knowledge

• Performance Task
• - student will design and individual fitness
  chart using spreadsheet excel or a table from a
  word document. The student must provide a clear
  written explanation of their fitness goals along
  with reasoning for each specific target area at
  which they are charting

• Grading Rubric
• 10 points The chart represents a
• clear picture of
• At least three fitness goals (3 pnts)
• How the student will track these goals (3 pnts)
• What components of fitness each goal covers (1
  pnt)
• The chosen method of tracking body composition
  and why (2 pnts)
• what technology will be used to help assess
  goals (ie. tri-fit computer program, heart rate
  monitor, pedometer etc)
