Students will be evaluated in the following manner for the majority of the units: Psychomotor (Skill Development): 40% of the student’s grade will be based upon their skill level and their development throughout the units. Each student is expected to attempt to improve their skill development to the best of their ability. Cognitive (Written Test): 20% of the grade will be based on a written test which evaluates their knowledge of certain activities. Handouts will be provided to help students prepare for the tests. If a written test is not given for a particular unit, that 20% will be added to the Affective mark. Affective: (Behaviour and Effort) 40% of the grade will be based on the behaviour, attendance, wearing the correct attire and effort of the student. The students will earn their affective mark by exhibiting cooperation, responsibility, sportsmanship, citizenship, regular attendance, participation, and effort in keeping within their level of ability.
