So that you will have a detailed understanding of our class and how each student will be graded, please examine the following:
Physical Education = 60% of your grade.
Breakdown of that 60% is… ***45%-P.E. Skill
***15%-P.E. Content/Fitness plans/projects
(Student may earn 5 points/day = max 10 points/week, 10 pts x 12 weeks (per unit) = Total of 120 points available)
Character Education = 10% of the overall grade
Health = 30% of your grade. Breakdown of that 30% is… ***15%-Major projects/research assignments
***10%-Regular graded in-class assignments
***5%-Quizzes
*** All major assignments and quizzes will be announced at least a week in advance. Make-up assignments are allowed for excused absences. There will be a major project at the end of the 12-week term that will be included in the overall term grade for the course.
Grades at ACMS provide solely an indication of student performance in relation to academic standards of content knowledge and skills ("what students should know and be able to do") for a particular assessment or for a class as a whole. The performance categories that correspond with each letter grade are as follows:
Exceeding the Standard-A+(approximately 100)
Meeting the Standard-A(approximately 90-100)
Approaching the Standard-B(approximately 80-90)
Just Beginning to work towards the Standard-C(approximately 70-80)
Not Yet Moving towards the Standard/Incomplete-NY(approximately 60-70)
Thank you, in advance, for your involvement and encouragement in your student’s achievement. Please email me any of your questions or concerns.
