Reflection



The way I'm going to go about this is to reflect on one fix I agree with and one that I do agree with. I will start with the one I do agree with and that fix would be” Don’t give points for extra credit”.  You shouldn’t get credit for something that doesn’t really count.
The one I disagree the most is “Don’t include student behaviors in grades; include only achievement” The first thing physical education state standard states “Students participate in regular physical activity” and standard “Students exhibit responsible personal and social behavior in physical activity settings”.  This book is geared for the common core.
I do believe that the behavior is as important as achievement.  The question is how to we successfully split them when they are so much tied to one another?
