*For each component in a box, a mark out of 3 out of three will be awarded (in the upper right corner) based on the following scale:
                                                                         1=needs improvement
                                                                         2=satisfactory
                                                                         3=very good
To calculate the final mark, simply add up the numbers in each box. The highest possible score is 57. In order to calculate the student's percentage, divide the sum of all the boxes by 57.

Assessing Teaching Instruction
        According to Mr. Pite, a teacher at Gordon Head Elementary, there are three key questions which a teacher must ask him/herself to determine if the P.E. class was successfull:
                                        -Were the students active for the majority of the class?
                                        -Did the students learn something new?
                                        -Did the students have fun?
By asking these questions, a teacher can self-assess his/her performance. Reflective notes should be made on the back of the lesson plan mentioning what worked well and why, as well as what could be improved.
