Excused Assignments
You now have the option to mark assignments as “Excused” in the points-based gradebook template. If you have a student that you would like to excuse an assignment for, simply enter the letter “E” into the appropriate cell for that assignment / student, and that assignment will not factor into the calculations.
Gradebook conditional formatting
You will notice that both templates have automatic color coding for the average grades of each student (Column B), and the average grades for each assignment (Row 1). This conditional formatting will allow you to easily identify students who are struggling or assignments that may have been too difficult or too easy.
Points based gradebook template (With automatic percentage tab)
In this template, you can set the “Points Possible” for each assignment, and then record the points that were earned for each student, on each assignment. After entering the points possible and the points earned, the total points earned for each student/ assignment will calculate, and so will the average percentage.
