Our program has similarities to some of the other replies in this thread. We have an elective program where we offer choices of either a Team Sport, a Racquet Activity or a fitness Elective. Each class will have 3 choices and each student will select an activity that interests them. I am writing this because participation seems to increase if the student has a choice in the decision process. Each block will last 5 weeks. Each day will be worth 5pts to total a possible 40. Include a skills test worth 5 pts. At the end of the quarter the class has an opportunity to submit a written assignment. This is worth 10 pts for a total of 100 pts. Each class the students need to behave, put forth effort and be prepared with gym clothes. Unprepared students get a zero for the day. Absent students have an opportunity to make up the class. If no makeup occurs, it will count as a zero.
