Polar Opposites

Not many schools are incorporating heart rate monitors and accelerometers in their classrooms.  There are a few Physical Education programs that are using these and they are seeing fantastic results.  Many other teachers are getting involved and some classes are making it a semester project to report on the results from throughout the semester.  I love the activity by other classes!  Staying fit is a lifestyle.  I want to be a model for my students, school, and community.  I would love to receive Polar watches with heart rate monitors and accelerometers because I think they will help students, faculty, and their families focus on their health and what they can do to make it better.  PolarUSA is a great company that is helping schools out by making sure kids are engaging in activity for a adequate amount of time.  I love the initiative taken by them and area schools to start making America healthy, one student at a time.  This new shift in added technology is a great addition to the schools today and a huge leap from where we used to consider normal.
