Fitness Testing- Arm Hang


This week we have been doing fitness testing with the 1st and 2nd grade classes. During fitness testing we are looking for students to try their best. We test 3 times during the school year- fall, winter and spring. Students are not graded based on their score, we are looking for the students to set a goal and increase their score during the next testing period. We will be doing activities and stretches throughout the year to help us better our scores. The FitnessGram is the testing resource we use and below you will see the 4 different tests we do here at Chatfield.

Aerobic Capacity- PACER (Progressive Aerobic Cardiovascular Run) 

 Muscular Strength and Endurance- Flexed Arm Hang 

Muscular Strength and Endurance- Sit-Ups

Flexibility- Sit and Reach

We are so proud of how the students performed this week! We feel the students all tried their best and can't wait to see how our scores increase in the coming months!
