Grade a class that covers several subjects
A screen recording of Pearspark doing exactly this in a sample school, and the same 9 steps written out below in the labels you'll see on screen.
How to grade a class that covers several subjects
- 1Click Classes under Learning in the sidebar, open your class, and click Gradebook
- 2Under the period bar, click a subject pill — one per subject the class covers, then "All"
- 3The title becomes "{Class} — {Subject}" and only that subject's assignments show
- 4Click "Add assignment" — the dialog reads "Add assignment — {Subject}", so new work is filed there
- 5When "assignments aren't filed under a subject", click "View All" to see them; unfiled work prints on no subject's report card line
- 6On the All tab, click "Edit" on an unfiled assignment and choose its "Subject" to file it
- 7Back on the subject tab, use More → "Grading" for that subject's own weights ("Grading settings — {Subject}")
- 8Click "Lock grades for report cards" on the subject tab — the dialog reads "Lock grades — {Period}"; each subject locks its own report-card line, and families can open the report card as soon as you lock
- 9The "All" tab has no Lock button — there's no single subject for the marks to land on, and "Report cards" stays grey until a subject is locked
Part of Gradebook, report cards & transcripts
Enter grades in a spreadsheet-style grid, post them once, and watch report cards and transcripts assemble themselves — plus the What-If views families use on their side.
