How Hard Does Your Heart Beat?
Students explore how intensity of activity increase heart rate. They are first instructed to check their pulse rate while lying down for approximately 2 minutes in a restful position. They record their heart rate on a worksheet provided...
Curated OER
Changes in Pulse Rate
Eighth graders practice making observations and collecting data after determining a baseline pulse rate then collect data on the changes in that rate with exercise. Students must organize their data and analyze their observations.
Curated OER
Exercise and the Human Heart
Interpret data and learn about the human heart in one activity! After learning about the way blood flows in the body, fifth graders answer two questions about a graph displaying pulse rate. They then take their own pulses to find the...

The Effect of Math Anxiety on Cardiovascular Homeostasis
Using a pulse monitor, learners will measure a resting pulse, take a math test, and then measure the pulse again. They analyze the change in pulse and compare it to performance on the test. This multi-purpose lesson can be used in a...
Curated OER
Exploring Pulse & Rhythm
Your class can actually sing and clap along with this slideshow! Discuss the concept of rhythm or pulse, as it is called here. Learners will then clap out the rhythm to the songs, Fre-re Jacques and Row, Row, Your Boat.
PLS 3rd Learning
Interpreting Heart Rates During Various Physical Activities
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 card....
Curated OER
Visible Pulse
Students record their pulse rate. For this circulatory system lesson, students use a piece of clay and a straw to make their pulse move visible and easier to accurately count and record.
Curated OER
Cardiorespiratory Fitness
Students explore cardiorespiratory fitness. In this biology lesson plan, students gain an understanding of pulse rates in order to compare lung capacities of active and inactive males and females. They also learn how to take and compare...
Curated OER
Cardiac Hill
Students calculate pulse rates to determine level of exertion. For this human body lesson, students hike up a hill or steep slope and take their pulse. Students observe their breathing and energy level then record data.
Curated OER
Heart Rate Monitoring
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....

It’s the Heart of the Matter
Get the class jumping for joy with a fascinating look at matters of the heart. Learners perform physical tasks, collect and analyze heart rate data, and study conditions that affect heart health. Use the action-packed lesson plan to...
Curated OER
The Racing Heart
Fifth graders locate their own pulse rate from their carotid or radial artery, and graph their pulse rates after completing various exercise activities. They graph their data on a pie graph using Microsoft Excel software.
Curated OER
How Do You Rate?
Fifth graders make a graph. In this pulse rate lesson, 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 results...
Curated OER
Listen To Your Heart Beat
Students listen to their heart beats. In this biology lesson plan, students explore pulse rates and factors that cause them to change. Students also construct both a graph to show variation in pulse rates and a simple stethoscope.
Curated OER
Pulse and Blood Pressure
In this blood pressure worksheet, students compare their heart rate at rest and after exercise and their blood pressure at rest and after exercise. This worksheet has 6 fill in the blank and 12 short answer questions.
