  4. Grading for Health Grading • We grade the same as the rest of RCI. • We use Outcomes and Study Skills to evaluate the students. • Homework and Tests are graded using the “P,B,N” system. (proficient, basic and not yet)

  5. Grading Outcomes in Health Class Outcomes • Graded on a scale of 1-5. • 1=The student is unable to show understanding of the outcome. • 2=The student demonstrates some understanding of the outcome but has not achieved a level adequate to pass. • 3=The student demonstrates an understanding of the outcome by passing the test at the set level of proficiency, however long term retention may not be verifiable. • 4=The student demonstrates an understanding of the outcome at the established proficiency level. • 5=The student demonstrates an understanding of the outcome beyond the established proficiency level. • 9=Instruction on this outcome is “in progress,” and no formal assessments have been administered at this time.

  6. Grading in Health Study Skills • Graded on a scale of 1-3 (3 outstanding, 2 is most of the time and 1 is seldom or never). However, on the report cards, it will show as a P,B or N. Examples of study skills include: • Stays on task • Produces quality work • Completes assignments on time • Organizes work • Works independently • Shows respect • Follows classroom rules • Cooperates
