Physical Education Class Overview:
GRADING SYSTEM:
The grading system in physical education is very simple. Each time your child comes to class they can earn 2 points. One for simply being dressed for physical activity with proper footwear and the other for showing energy, effort, empathy. I stress in my classes the importance of being sensitive to the ability level of your classmates because we have a wide range of athletic skill sets. It is good character development for my higher level athletes to learn when it’s appropriate to be aggressive and competitive and when to pull back. I only see your student 1 day a week for 53 minutes so attendance is very important!
