Assessment & Evaluation

Conversations: Students will have opportunities to discuss with their peers and their teacher about the activity, expressing their ideas and creativity.

Observations: The teacher will observe each student and assess their progression and technique. This allows the teacher to give meaningful feedback enhancing their confidence, and competence with the activity.

Rubrics: During group performances, a rubric will be provided to each student outlining how they can achieve the highest academic score, while maintaining a high quality, engaging, and inclusive environment.

All outcomes will be graded on a scale from 1 - 4. For Jr. High students, that score will turn into a percent grade on their report card. For Elementary students, they will receive one of the following on their report card: Not Meeting (NM), Needs Development (ND), Developing as Expected (DE), and Well Developed (WD). 

Outcomes:

• At DSA, we follow the Nova Scotia Physical Education Curriculum outcomes during each unit. Those outcomes will be explained during the introduction of each unit.

Learner Profiles:

• • Classwork/Assignments: Participation in all activities.

  • Interactions w/ Others: Are you interacting with others during lessons? Are those interactions positive?

  • Organizational Skills: Are you prepared for PE with proper equipment?

  • Responsibility & Independence: A combination of all the above. Participating in each lesson. Communicating with the peers, teachers, and others. Positive and appropriate interactions with others. Prepared for class with proper clothing/footwear. Staying on task during lessons.
