B) 1) The website is from Canada which is located in North-America right above the United States. The people in the video were from a particular place in Canada called Saskatoon.
2) This piece was very interesting because I can relate to the situation the student was going through. I was a problemed child when I was in Middle School and I did not find any purpose or motivation to do good in school. If teachers would have used these methods throughout middle school, I would have probably done better.
3) I believe that the P.E teacher was not involved because he was not a good P.E teacher. As they showed in the video, most students were not moving and on top of everything the class seemed like the teacher just threw out balls and told the kids to go play. In other words there was no real organization in the classroom.
4) Using treadmills in the classroom brought up grades and performance in classrooms drastically. Exit exams show that math grades improved by 17%. The teacher also noticed that after 20 minutes on the treadmill student would pay more attention to the material than if the students were to get into the material right away.
5) It is similar to New York State Learning standards because the activity allows students to learn and maintain a healthy lifestyle, but the 20 minutes on the treadmill does not get too much into detail like a physical education teacher should do throughout his/her lesson.
