The Rubric Maker generates detailed assessment rubrics for any PE activity or skill. Each rubric includes clear criteria, performance level descriptors, and can be customised for your specific needs.
Activity/Sport (required) — The activity being assessed (e.g. "Swimming freestyle", "Basketball", "Dance performance").
Specific Focus/Skill — Narrow the rubric to a particular skill within the activity (e.g. "Dribbling" within Basketball).
Number of Criteria — How many assessment criteria to include (1–10).
Achievement Levels — Number of performance levels (2–6), for example: Beginning, Developing, Competent, Excelling.
A complete assessment rubric with:
Named performance levels (e.g. Beginning → Excelling)
Clear, observable criteria for each level
Specific descriptors that make assessment consistent and fair
Print-ready format for classroom use
Use 3–4 criteria for quick in-class assessment, or 6+ for major summative tasks.
4 achievement levels is a good default — it avoids a "middle" option and pushes clearer judgments.
Pair with the Easy Rubric widget to score students in real-time during class.
