We will be using a daily point system for each student, which will be kept in our grade books.  The following is the criteria we will be using to issue a grade in Physical Education for the year 2008-09:

• Prepared for class
• Attendance/Punctuality
• Attitude & Behavior
• Participation/Effort

Each student can earn up to 4 points daily.  Points will be awarded based on the following rubric:

4 points	3 points	2 points	1 point	0 points
Prepared for class Maximum Participation/Effort Good Attitude/ Behavior Punctual	Prepared for class Average Participation/Effort Good Attitude/ Behavior Punctual	Prepared for class Average Participation/ Effort Poor Attitude/ Behavior or Tardy	Prepared for class Minimal Participation/Effort Disruptive Behavior or Tardy	Not Prepared

 

We are using a 20-day quarter to base our point system for our Pass/Fail grading system.

50 points and above = Pass for Quarter

Below 50 points = Failure for Quarter

 

Grading/Pass/Fail:

• You may not take two dress cuts in the same week.  If you do, you have detention (teacher will schedule you).
• If you use more than two dress cuts per quarter, make-ups will be scheduled before or after school.
• All make-ups must be made up within one week of the missed class.  Do not wait to make up classes in the last week of the quarter!  If you do not show up for make-ups, you will fail the quarter.
