An online coaching program that empowers PE teachers to go from feeling confused and overwhelmed with assessing and grading to feeling confident and clear, so they can thrive in their teaching and help all students succeed at high levels.
You feel unsure or stuck about assessment and grading in PE.
You want to use assessment in your PE class, but you don’t know how it can be done in meaningful ways.
It’s time to form a report, and you don’t feel confident that the processes used to form a grade actually reflect what the students were able to do with their learning.
Many PE teachers struggle with adapting to non-traditional assessment practices, such as Standard-Based Grading (SBG), due to a lack of clear, PE-specific guidance and ongoing support. As a result, they feel overwhelmed, and students are left uncertain about their progress, hindering effective teaching and learning.
Many PE teachers, unsure how to effectively assess learning in PE class, default to grading surface-level behaviors like wearing gym clothes, participation, and punctuality. While these are easy to track, they don’t align with the core objectives of physical education, leaving students unclear about what they are learning and missing out on opportunities for meaningful growth.
Many PE teachers find professional development (PD) experiences irrelevant to the realities of their classrooms, leaving them with little opportunity for meaningful growth. This disconnect leads to frustration, making teachers feel unsupported and undervalued, which ultimately limits their ability to improve their practice and enhance student learning.
