Technology

 

Hortonville Middle School Physical Education uses many different types of technology. 

 

Trifit Computerized Fitness Testing

All students in grades 6th through 8th grade are tested using this computerized fitness testing system.  The fitness tests that are used are:

PACER test, bicep strength and the modified sit and reach.

 

Heart Rate Monitors

All students wear heart rate monitors as part of their physical education classes.  The students work out in their own target heart zone.

 

Pedometers

Students wear pedometers during physical education classes to see how many steps they are taking during activity. Students are taught the importance of taking 10,000 steps a day and that all exercise that they do inside as well as outside of school is important.
