Case: Grades
I have students who never dress out or participate for P.E. I have tried everything under the sun to try and get them to participate. I have even told them they did not have to dress out, as long as they walked during class, I would give them credit (because they were being physically active). These students have been removed from the class and put in another class. I received an email that both students, both average below a 20%, that their grade will be modified to a 60% going into their new class. In my opinion, this is teaching the kids that they do not have to do anything and will just be given a higher average. How do you approach this situation?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I love this post!!!!!!!! I teach a performance based music class. So I run into this type of situation all the time! If students don't have their method book or instrument, how on earth can I grade them if they aren't performing?? And then you have parents complain because their kid is failing!
I had a sit-down with my administration during my first year here and basically told them that I would not hesitate to drop a child from my program if they aren't participating. There is simply no way to grade them if they aren't actively involved in rehearsals. Meet with your administration and counselors. There's no excuse not to participate unless you have physical restrictions in P.E. class. |
