MONITORING HEART GRADE 6 45 – 60 minutes: one to

RATE collect data and a second
to process, present and
interpret measurements

CONTENT: MUSIC MOVEMENT

I. OBJECTIVES:

A. The students will be able to use listening skills, coordination and other physical
movements to experience an effective workout.
B. Students will learn how to measure their heart rates after a variety of physical
activities, and then compare their post-exercise heart rates to their resting rates.

II. LEARNING RESOURCES:

REFERENCE: Powerplay Activity 3: “Heart Rate and Exercise”

MATERIALS NEEDED: Laptop, Video Presentation, Stopwatch, Calculator, Paper, Pen

III. LEARNING PROCEDURES:

A. PRELIMINARY ACTIVITIES

TEACHER’S ACTIVITY STUDENT’S ACTIVITY

 A. PRAYER

Ask students who are “atheists and

members of other religions before
beginning the prayer.” Ask those students
to pray in their own way, and ask atheist Students who practice other religions will pray

begins.

B. GREETINGS

“Good afternoon class!” “Good afternoon, Teacher!”

C. CHECKING OF ATTENDANCE

“Is everybody present today?”

“I see. Please let the students who aren't “Teacher, Ms. De Leon is not here today.”
in class today know what we learned
today, ok?”

B. DEVELOPMENTAL ACTIVITIES

 D. OPENING TO LESSON – VIDEO
PRESENTATION
(Let the students watch a video
presentation on the importance of
monitoring heart rates.)
E. DISCUSSION
(Call for a student. Ask them to read the PPT
Slide)
(Discuss how they will
measure their heart rate)
“In adults, a normal resting heartbeat is
around 72 beats per minute (average 600-
100 beats per minute).
An unusually low or high heartbeat may
point to an underlying problem, so be sure
to consult your doctor if that’s the case.”
“To measure your resting heart rate, press
the side of your wrist towards your thumb.
Use your index and middle finger to press
over the blood vessels. When you catch
the beat, hold for 15 seconds. Multiply by
four to find you resting heart beat.”
(As it will enable them to complete the
assignment, students will pay close attention
to the video presentation and to the teacher
and take notes on the key points of the
lesson.)
(Student will read the ppt slide)
“To gain the most from your training it is
crucial that you monitor your heart rate on
a regular basis.
Each person’s heart rate helps to
determine their fitness level and by
monitoring this, you are able to avoid
overtraining, which in turn can reduce the
risk of injury and mental fatigue.
Your heartbeat in a relaxed state is called
your resting heart rate and calculating it is
actually a lot more important than you
think.
A lower resting heart rate points to a state
of greater health and fitness. A well-
trained athlete, for example, would have a
normal resting heart rate of around 40
beats per minute.
As you become fitter from more intense
exercise, your heart rate will decrease,
helping your lungs and heart become
stronger.”

F. APPLICATION

“Who likes to dance to music?” “Me / us, teacher!”

“Well, today, we are going to dance!” “Yehey!”

“You're all going to dance to the beat

when I start playing some music. I'll play
two different types of music: one with a
fast, upbeat rhythm and the other, slower
and more relaxing. After that, you'll put “Yes, teacher”
everything you've learned for today's
lesson into practice. I'll start by playing
the music with a slower and more relaxing
beat. After dancing to it, I want you to all
sit still for a minute, then I'll time you for
15 seconds as you all count your pulses.
Next, multiply it by 4. When I play the
music with a fast, upbeat rhythm, y'all will
do the same as what we did on the first
one. Don't forget to note the results, your
surname, and the section on a piece of
paper. After that, I will collect it.
Understand?”

(Proceed on playing the music. Then let

the student dance to it)
(Let students enjoy in dancing)

(Assist them in measuring their heart rate.

After that, collect it.)

“Did you guys enjoy?” “Yes, teacher!”

C. ASSIGNMENT

- Present the assignment to the students.

- “Write a journal entry describing what you learned about the connections
between music movement and heart rate.”
