All 10 Physics Practices

This document shows the 10 learning progressions that Elise used during the 2022-2023 school year. 

Assessment

Tracking Requirements

There are Minimum Requirements students must meet in order to provide me with enough evidence to ascertain their level of mastery. 

This document is handed out on Day 1 of class, so they can track progress and see patterns over time.

Reflective Practice

Goal Setting

This document is a sample so that students can see their "grade" in the class and set goals for the next unit. This changes at the end of each unit.

Spreadsheet

LPM Tracking Log (Gradebook)

This is a spreadsheet that will calculate grades based on the grade translation once you enter student names and scores on each of the learning progressions.

Reflective Practice

End-of-Year Contract

This is a combination of goal setting and grade negotiations that I use at the beginning of the last unit of the school year.

Reflective Practice

Pattern of Performance (Score Tracking)

This is a sample log that I provide the students. They record their scores on their assessments so that we can look for patterns of performance. This helps us to identify strengths and weaknesses as well as negotiate grades.

Target Levels

Here are my target levels for Physics so you can see how they progress over the year.
