1. RACHEL EMERSON Equipment/Software Project

2. Importance Using different equipment and software in the physical education class can be very helpful to both the student and teacher. The teacher can use many different things to test their students or to come up with fun ways for them to stay active. It can help the students by recording their progress that they have made and to help them have fun while doing it as well. Through out this power point I will show you some different tools that a physical education teacher and student can use both inside and outside of the classroom.

3. Stop watch A stop watch is used to measure the amount of time you are doing a certain activity and how fast you can do it. Examples:  Use a stop watch to time yourself running/sprinting so you can get faster each time.  Use a stop watch to time yourself lifting to see how many reps you can get in a certain amount of time.  Use a stop watch to time yourself for how long you can keep your balance doing something such as standing on one foot.

4. Why a stop watch? Using a stop watch, especially in gym class, will get the students more involved by getting more competitive with one another. They will try to start beating their best times or the best times out of the whole class. It will give them more motivation to try harder at the activity. Stop watches are also very affordable, you can get one for only ten dollars.
