Grading Scale:

25% of your grade will be 20 point a day system.(Please note: Daily Point grades will be posted every 2 weeks)

-10 points for participation and attitude: To get full credit you must get your clothes changed and be in gym area sitting down 5 minutes after class started. 1 point will be deducted for every minute that you are late unless a note is submitted. Most importantly you must participate in every activity for that day. You also must show appropriate attitude, sportsmanship, and respect to everyone and everything in our class. Participation is a huge factor in this course. If a student is not giving what I perceive as appropriate effort or they are behaving in a way that is disrupting the activity they will lose points!

-10 points for appropriate PE dress: The 10 points will be divided by 5 points for PE shirt and 5 points for the rest of the appropriate attire (shorts, athletic pants, shoes)

10% of your grade will be from class assignments: These assignments can include: peer evaluations, self-evaluations, quick write activities, exit slips, entrance slips, and review assignments.

10% of your grade will be from 1 PE Quarter Exam: We will have 1 PE exam every 4 ½ weeks over the concepts, activities, and sports that we covered in PE.

Health

20% of your grade will be from In Class Assignments: These assignments will vary and they will almost always be completed in class.

5% of your grade will be from your Health Notebook: There will be a daily journal assignment where you will respond to an article, question, or thought provoking statement in your health notebook that is kept in our room. You will also keep all class notes in this journal and this will be checked for a grade periodically.

10% of your grade will be from either 1 or 2 In-Class Quizzes: These will be given halfway during the 4 ½ weeks of health.
