Abstract
In today’s educational climate, physical education teachers are required to assess student learning in order to document student growth and demonstrate effectiveness as a teacher. However, because many schools limit the amount of time students spend in physical education, it is often difficult to assess student learning without it interfering with students’ opportunities to stay active during class time. This article presents an assessment cycle that will allow for a physical education teacher to assess student performance longitudinally over a unit, while maximizing participation time of students.
