One of my least favorite parts about being a PE teacher is writing report card comments.
My district has a very strict policy about individualizing physical education report card comments, and report card comments in general.
This makes report card comments a very busy time with having to write a minimum of 180 individualized PE report card comments.
The good thing about me having to write all these comments is that I can share my process. Here are 6 tips for making writing personalized Phys Ed report card comments quick and easy!

Be Proactive Before Writing PE Report Card Comments
I’ve found that the best way to make writing Phys Ed report card comments easy is to be proactive with my assessment before I even think about writing my comments.
Grade With Each Standard
A lot of my assessment comes from observation of my students. In a two-week unit, I typically do about 4 days of assessment.
For each of the days, I choose a couple of general standards to focus on and let the students know ahead of time. I walk around and watch my students throughout the lesson and give them a mark. I continue to update the assessment throughout the class.
This makes it easier for me to give students an accurate overall mark when it comes to my report cards.
I use the marks I assign students to help when writing my comments, which I’ll talk about a bit later on in the post.
Take Cruising Notes
While I’m walking around doing my assessments I always write down some notes as well. I create my class list so that I have longer sections that I can write in.
I take notes on how my students are successful and the areas they are working on. These typically include skills, teamwork/cooperation, and participation/effort because these are the main focuses of my curriculum.
I always keep these notes handy so that if I’m not doing assessment on a particular day, I can add notes if I notice my students doing particularly well or poorly in a specific area.

Have Your Students Help Write Personalized Physical Education Report Card Comments
Okay, hear me out. I don’t mean have your students actually write their comments for you, but I find it really helpful to get their feedback about their experience in physical education.
Student Check-in
A couple of weeks before my PE report card comments are due, I give my students a check-in.
On the check-in, I ask students what their favorite unit is.
I ask my students about a skill they learned or use often. Then I ask students to give a specific example when they demonstrated teamwork.
My final question asks students what they want to improve.
Depending on the students, these check-ins don’t always yield amazing results, but they always give me a starting point.
Including student voice is a great way to make physical education report card comments more personalized. It also helps prevent parent pushback because the students have a say in their PE comments.

Digital or Physical Check-In
Depending on your class setup, you can give your student check-in physically or digitally.
If you choose to go the digital route, then I would suggest having your students do a Google Form. This way you can export the results into a spreadsheet so you can easily sort your students’ data.
If you go with a printed sheet, then make sure to keep your sheets separated by class and sorted alphabetically by last name. This makes it really easy to look through your student data while completing your Phys Ed report card comments.
Pick Your Comment Format
Once you’ve done your assessment and you have your students’ input, you’re ready to start writing your PE report card comments.
Bullet Points or Paragraphs
The first thing you’ll need to decide is if you want to use bullet points or paragraphs for your physical education report card comments.
This is generally up to your admin. I’ve been at several schools and each admin has different requirements. If your admin doesn’t say anything when you’re starting to write comments then it’s best to ask first.
The last thing you want is to write all of your comments and then be told you need to switch them to a different format.
This is another admin choice, but you want to check with your principal if you should be using student pronouns.
When I started teaching, I always used my students’ pronouns when writing Phys Ed report card comments. The pronouns always had to be the ones approved by the student’s parents.
When I had students with different pronouns than their pronouns assigned at birth, I would have a conversation with the student to let them know the school protocol.
For the last couple of years, however, my school’s format has been to only use “they” and “their” for report card comments.
These do feel a bit less personal, but it helps in a lot of ways, including making it easier to copy and paste sections of text without missing a “she” or “his”.
The last formatting issue you need to get out of the way is what names to use.
Some schools allow teachers to write their students’ nicknames or chosen names on report cards. Others require you to use their legal name.
This can be a bit confusing if you’ve never used a student’s legal name in class, but it’s best to get the information ahead of time so you don’t have to go back and replace names later, although this is a pretty easy fix.

Focus on Standards to Write Phys Ed Report Card Comments
Now you’re all set to write your amazing and personalized physical education report card comments!
When you’re writing your comments, focus on the standards. Look at the curriculum and take some of the direct language from it to write your PE report card comments.
In my district, we only assess based on the standards of the curriculum, so this doesn’t typically take any extra time to figure out.
What to Avoid Talking About
One area that I normally see teachers talk about when writing their PE report card comments is which units they covered during the reporting period.
I typically stay away from this because a report card is about how well each specific student did in a class, not about the class in general.
I’ll mention a specific unit if a student had particular strengths or areas of improvement in the unit.
Another thing that some teachers talk about is student attitude. In my district, we aren’t allowed to say anything about student attitude or even “ Student Name was a pleasure to have in the class”.
However, if your curriculum includes aspects of attitude, then feel free to add PE report card comments about this.
Begin With Student Strengths
Start with your students’ strengths. Look back through your assessment notes and your student check-in sheets to help you with this process.
My plan of action is to look at a student’s highest overall standard mark. Then I look at the specific unit that they have the best mark in, with regards to the highest overall standard mark and I look at the notes I have written from that unit.
I use these three pieces of information to write the Phys Ed report card comment.
For example:
“ Student Name consistently demonstrated an exceptional work ethic and level of competence during skill development processes. This was seen most evidently during our Olympic Lifting unit. Student Name showed resiliency through adapting attempts to find success with various lifting techniques.”
“ Student Name has displayed an adequate level of confidence and competence in the skill development process. This was seen most evidently during our rugby unit when they worked to learn how to do a pop pass and a spin pass with various amounts of defense.”
“ Student Name has shown growth throughout the term in their ability to perform and refine movement skills, demonstrate fair play and teamwork, and apply strategies for leading a healthy life. Student Name has worked on demonstrating teamwork and focusing on fair play. This was seen most evidently in the Aussie Rules’ Football unit when they kept a positive attitude and lifted up their teammates’ spirits.”
Each of these examples focuses on a specific standard that students are either strong in or have shown growth in throughout the reporting period. I also try to give a specific example from a unit that I can highlight for the student and their parents.
If you aren’t sure of a specific example to give, look back at the students’ check-in form for ideas.
![end of year report card comments physical education Start with the Positive When Writing Personalized Physical Education Report Card Comments](https://teachingpak.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Start-with-the-Positive-When-Writing-Personalized-Physical-Education-Report-Card-Comments-1024x536.png)
What If You Don’t Know a Student’s Strength?
There are some students who choose to sit out for most of our classes and it can feel really hard to find a positive thing to say about them.
One thing that I often do is use a similar idea from the examples above, but switch up the vocabulary.
For example, instead of saying:
“ Student Name consistently demonstrated an exceptional work ethic and level of competence during skill development processes.”,
I might say:
“ Student Name occasionally demonstrated a basic work ethic and level of competence during some skill development processes”
“ Student Name demonstrated a simplistic level of competence during skill development processes in our volleyball unit ”.
By switching the frequency and accuracy of your chosen standard, you can adapt a comment that you already wrote to more correctly fit a student at a different level.
Whatever you do, make sure you include something positive about each student. I typically try to include 3 sentences, or bullet points, relating to a student’s strengths.
Include Areas of Improvement
Report cards are often called progress reports, so it’s important to remember to include ways that students can improve when writing your physical education report cards.
Try to make sure that your improvement comments still have an air of optimism to them. We want to make sure that our students are encouraged to improve as opposed to feeling defeated.
I tend to list 1 to 2 improvements for my students.
Some examples of areas of improvement that I use are:
“ Student Name will experience greater success as they work to more fully participate in all activities, approach new learning activities with enthusiasm, and strive to involve themselves in gameplay.”
“ Student Name will experience greater success as they work to demonstrate positive communication with their peers, limit distractions, and work to improve their leadership skills by being a positive role model to their peers.
What If There Aren’t Obvious Improvements?
Just like with strengths, there should always be areas of improvement.
The first thing I change is that I say the student will experience “even further” or “even greater” success to show to their adults at home that they’re already doing an amazing job. This is just so they can get even better.
Then I typically focus on the student working on their leadership and citizenship skills. Once they have everything else covered, one of the best ways to improve themselves further is to help build their peers up.
Here is an example:
“ Student Name will experience even further success as they work to develop their citizenship skills. This can be accomplished through supporting peers in their learning processes, encouraging classmates, and showing initiative.”

Final Thoughts
I will often start with a comment bank like the one above. For each student, I’ll copy four or five of the most suitable statements.
But, I will also follow-up my generic comment from the comment bank with a specific example for the parents to read.
Parents do like to see that you have provided specific and thoughtful statements – so don’t forget to use the student’s name and specific anecdotes as much as possible.
I do hope this comment bank for report card comments has come in handy for you.
Remember to also maintain a positive but honest and constructive voice when writing.
If there is serious concern that might be difficult to express in writing, you should arrange for a parent-teacher conference to have a discussion and see how things progress.
Good luck with your report card writing!

End of Year Report Card Comments with 25 Examples
| |
| As another academic year comes to a close, teachers find themselves facing the task of writing end-of-year report card comments. These comments provide a comprehensive summary of a student's progress, highlighting their strengths, areas for improvement, and overall performance. While report card comments can be challenging to write, they serve as a vital communication tool between teachers, parents, and students. In this blog post, we will discuss some useful tips for writing effective end-of-year report card comments, followed by 25 examples to help you get started. |
Tips for Writing Report Card Comments:
Be specific: Provide concrete examples and anecdotes that illustrate the student's achievements or areas needing improvement. This specificity helps parents and students understand the feedback better.
Use positive language: Begin the comment with a positive statement, focusing on the student's strengths and accomplishments. This sets a constructive tone and encourages further growth.
Balance praise with constructive criticism: While it's essential to acknowledge and celebrate a student's successes, it's equally important to address areas that require improvement. Ensure your comments strike a balance between praise and constructive feedback.
Use a growth mindset approach: Encourage students to embrace challenges and see setbacks as opportunities for growth. Promote resilience, effort, and perseverance in your comments to foster a growth mindset.
Be professional and objective: Use professional language and avoid overly personal or subjective statements. Stick to facts and observations based on your assessments and records.
Individualize comments: Tailor your comments to each student, highlighting their unique strengths, interests, and challenges. Personalized comments demonstrate your investment in each student's progress.
Offer actionable suggestions: Provide specific suggestions for improvement that parents and students can act upon. These recommendations can guide students' and parents' efforts towards targeted growth.
Include future goals: Mention goals or areas of focus for the upcoming academic year. This helps students and parents understand what to expect and provides a sense of direction.

Here is a checklist of things to look out for when creating comments.
- Always write the truth.

- Use synonyms instead of repeating the same words.
- Write sentences of different lengths.

- Key considerations for effective end-of-year report cards
Just about every teacher agrees: report card comments are important to provide insights and next steps to students and families. But there are few who actually look forward to writing them.
Because every instructor knows working under tight deadlines to create upwards of 20 unique and detailed reports at the end of the year or term isn’t exactly straightforward (or particularly fun). That's especially true in the era of distance learning.
And while no one at your school knows your students better than you do, writing valuable report card comments for each of them can be a huge challenge.
That’s why we created a list of 107 sample report card comments — starters to help you find ideas, inspiration, and insights while writing your own report cards.
The 107 report card comments in this list will help you:
- Instill a growth mindset in students
- Build stronger home-to-school connections
- Write stronger leads and use livelier language
- Choose the right phrasing when writing positive and constructive report card comments
Report card comment starters
You'll notice that the report card comments below can act as a springboard for more fully developed ones. But don't worry, using them you'll be able to take some of these one-liners and turn them into insightful and actionable next steps!
For example, you'll be able to take a 1st grade number sense comment like "Your child is able to add and subtract numbers up to 20 using various manipulatives" and transform it into:
Your child is able to add and subtract numbers up to 20 using various manipulatives. This was evident when he was working independently to solve a real-world problem by adding toys in the classroom toy bin. As a next step, they should continue to add to larger numbers to encourage his skills. You can support him by asking him to add his own toy piles at home.
Or taking a responsibility-related learning skill comment from "Your child is able to take responsibility for her own actions both in and out of the classroom" to:
Your child is able to take responsibility for her own actions both in and out of the classroom. She often checks her agenda and day planner to make sure she has all of the necessary materials to complete work at home before leaving. During indoor recess, she takes time to tidy up everything she was playing with.
Notice the difference?
Compared to a single number or letter grade, report card comments can provide even more value to your students and their families. In other words, a number or letter or grade captures the what , while an accompanying comment captures the how .
Depending on the age group or grade level you teach, a letter or grade letter might be enough. However, research in Phi Delta Kappan, the professional journal for educators, suggests:
Comments that identify what students did well, what improvements they need to make, and how to make those improvements, provided with sensitivity to important contextual elements, can guide students on their pathways to learning success and ensure that all learn excellently.

Tips for teachers to write more effective student report card comments
1. give yourself extra time and start writing comments early.
![end of year report card comments physical education Teacher at desk writing with paper and pen.](https://images.prismic.io/prodigy-website/4512a5db-efc2-4612-b2a2-12d02a95c61e_meaningful-report-card-comments.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&w=600&h=400)
Somewhere around the halfway point to your deadline for report cards, you make your best effort to use time at the end of each week to reflect — and jot down notes — about your students’ performance and class week.
What are their strengths and weaknesses? How are their social skills developing with classmates? How is their class participation - are they an enthusiastic learner? Have they shown great improvement in one particular subject area? Are homework assignments getting done? Have any new challenges come up that affect learning?
Even just a few minutes of note-taking in the weeks preceding report card deadlines will help to ease your stress when the time comes to write your final comments.
Moreover, having a dated log of information detailed throughout the school year will help you remember how students are performing throughout each week, which can be valuable information come parent-teacher conference time.
This will also help to engage and reassure parents who want relevant and detailed commentary about their child’s performance at school.
2. Use free, curriculum-aligned apps for teachers
![end of year report card comments physical education Prodigy Math screenshot.](https://images.prismic.io/prodigy-website/4517f579-f717-4001-ad23-39c14daf923e_Use+Prodigy+to+Spend+Less+Time+Grading.png?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&w=600&h=325)
Use Prodigy to write insightful report cards with a minimum of hassle. Prodigy Math is an engaging math adventure for students where success depends on correctly answering adaptive math questions.
As students play, you’ll get insights into:
- Which skills students are practicing
- How far they’ve progressed through the curriculum
- What they’ve mastered and where they need more support
Use one of Prodigy’s eight reports to track student progress throughout the year. When the time comes to write report card comments, you’ll have detailed reports on all your students’ achievements.
Just getting started with Prodigy? No problem! The first time students explore the world of Prodigy Math, they’ll start completing the Placement Test — without even knowing. Once they’re done, you’ll have a snapshot of the grade level they’re at, what they know and specific skills they still need to work on.
Spend more time teaching and less time grading
Prep for standardized tests, deliver adaptive skill practice or test students on a new skill — all while they play Prodigy Math, Prodigy English, or both!
3. Be encouraging, informational and professional
![end of year report card comments physical education Teacher writing at desk.](https://images.prismic.io/prodigy-website/2c954769-ca71-4885-9dec-005c48aedf22_end-of-year-school-report-card-comments.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&w=600&h=400)
Although every report card cannot be glowingly positive, do strive to write in an encouraging and informational tone. As you write constructive report card comments, use encouraging language that focuses on the student’s opportunity for improvement.
For example, instead of describing a student struggling with listening as a “bad listener,” remark that the student “would benefit from listening more carefully.”
If appropriate, frame a negative comment in terms of what students are doing well -- and consider how this more successful characteristic can help them bolster performance in other areas.
4. Use a consistent format
![end of year report card comments physical education Two teachers walking together in hall.](https://images.prismic.io/prodigy-website/27e90488-058f-41e8-bb60-b6beceb53323_math-report-card-comments.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&w=600&h=400)
Lead your report card comments with the positive comments, followed by areas that need more attention.
Choosing the right format for reporting information will simplify the entire process, while resulting in a clearer and more organized final product.
If you are unclear about your school’s format for report cards, request samples or consult with other teachers or staff members to clarify.
5. Be honest
![end of year report card comments physical education Teacher using tablet with student in class.](https://images.prismic.io/prodigy-website/2a146d7a-7c31-4ecc-aa0e-7ca85da582c2_end-of-the-year-teacher-report-card-comments.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&w=600&h=400)
Being open and honest about a student’s performance requires tact and consideration with regard to how you express those comments. Be transparent, and remain mindful that your goal is to improve your students’ learning experience.
Openness and honesty are key to ensuring that experience is the best it can be. If possible, discuss what intervention strategies you can use to help improve the student’s learning outcomes.
As elementary teacher Donna Donaghue remarks in her book A Guide for Beginning Elementary Teachers: Getting Hired and Staying Inspired :
If there is a problem, most parents will be grateful to you for telling them and will want to help you correct it as soon as possible. Many problems that show up at school are also problems noticed at home, so your comments will not surprise parents. Ideally, at some point prior to receiving the progress report, parents have already discussed the problem with you.
6. Move on if you get stuck
![end of year report card comments physical education no image](https://images.prismic.io/prodigy-website/afe44057-d717-40f6-af0c-2c7eb9be0b89_free-end-of-year-report-card-comments.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&w=600&h=400)
If you get stuck completing the comments for a particular student, move on to your other students and return to it later. You will likely have more trouble completing comments for students who have multiple areas needing further improvement and attention.
Feel free to move on and return to those students periodically or as you find the right language to express your insights.
7. Keep parents and guardians in mind
![end of year report card comments physical education Teacher sitting with student in class.](https://images.prismic.io/prodigy-website/5d8cb3e9-046b-4a15-89cf-86ddf5483a6f_report-card-comments-end-of-year.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&w=600&h=400)
While every report card comment is ultimately about your student, think of your students’ parents or guardians as much as possible and offer suggestions for their participation.
In fact, if you can, keep parents up to date on an ongoing basis. This will help ensure they don't get caught off guard by any of your comments.
As you make note of your students’ strengths and weaknesses, endeavor to include practical insights into how parents can involve and support their child at home. If possible, make reference to how you use differentiated instruction to support the student in question.
Simple examples of tips for parents include:
- "Encourage your child to read. It doesn't have to be on your own either. Dedicating time before bed to read together can help make it seem like less of a chore."
- "Find homework help for your child if needed. Myself and other parents who are also getting homework help for their child are great resources to get started."
- "Ensure that your child completes their homework by creating a homework routine with your family where incentives like TV or computer time come after homework."
- "Help your child with organization skills at home. If a room in your house could be tidier, try using that as an opportunity to sort things like toys or dishes and utensils."
- "Help your child prepare for math tests by focusing their skills in addition and subtraction. If they don't like studying with traditional worksheets, try a digital game-based learning tool to help get them excited about the process."
As high school educator and teaching comprehension expert Anne Goudvis writes in her book Strategies That Work:
It is important that you include the parents in your comment so they know the child’s education is a joint mission. Sometimes you need to sound firm so that parents know you need their help and that you will not allow their child to continue inappropriate behavior.
8. Try not to repeat yourself
![end of year report card comments physical education Teacher writing report card comments on desk.](https://images.prismic.io/prodigy-website/fc9e71f9-d796-4e87-8a8f-1d86ae0ad247_report-card-comments-for-difficult-students.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&w=600&h=400)
It is unlikely that your students or parents will compare their report card comments, but it is still a best practice to aim for unique commentary for each student that reflects each, individual learning outcome.
9. Proofread, even if you don’t want to
Report card time is perhaps your busiest period of the year, and it is understandable that you want to simply get them over with.
Despite this, you should make sure to double check all your comments before hitting print and handing them out. All your communications to parents are a reflection of you as a teacher, and should mirror the care and attention you show your students in class.
10. Notify parents
![end of year report card comments physical education no image](https://images.prismic.io/prodigy-website/75f31984-f08f-40d4-873d-b1044f903d4d_end-of-the-year-report-card-comments.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&w=600&h=400)
Make use of your school’s parent portal or email system to let parents know — as needed — that report card time is coming up.
This will help parents be prepared, and will also ensure that any important questions they may have are addressed before the final report cards are delivered.
Did you know?
If you're using Prodigy Math in your classroom, you can connect parents to follow their child's progress. A free parent account comes with a monthly report card and insights into classroom learning, helping them stay informed of how their child is doing in class. They can also send their child an encouraging message to cheer their child on as they play and practice skills in Prodigy!
11. Use specific examples with the help of direct observation
![end of year report card comments physical education Student and teacher working together in class.](https://images.prismic.io/prodigy-website/dbceee20-d953-44be-88bc-3c7f26ab8077_end-of-year-report-card-comments.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&w=600&h=400)
Record and use classroom anecdotes in your assessments. No matter how involved you are in your students’ progress, it can still be difficult to produce specific examples related to their performance if you haven’t recorded them along the way.
When you notice a positive or negative skill, ability, strength, or weakness in a class activity or assignment, be sure to note it down so that you may refer to it in your report card comments. Likewise, consider noting a sample of a student’s work every week or two.
To help with ease of access, keep ongoing files of this work in a personal folder or use a digital tool such as a Google Doc.
Putting this into practice is a time-saver and helps prevent last-minute stress. A strategy like direct observation and note-taking (as soon as possible) is far more reliable than trying to recall information and behaviors from weeks or months prior.
12. Try using tech to help
Writer's block happens to all of us, including teachers. If the report card comments in this article didn't help, fear not, there are still plenty of tools and resources to give you a helping hand.
One new option for teachers is using artificial intelligence (AI) to assist with report card ideas. For example, teachers can use tools like ChatGPT to generate examples for their specific needs.
When using chat technology, try to keep your prompt concise and easy to follow. A good template prompt to follow is:
"Write [number] report card comments for students studying [subject] in [grade]."
Here are some more specific examples to help get you started:
- Write 50 report card comments for students studying social studies in 5th grade.
- Generate 20 report card remarks commending a student for a positive attitude to learning.
- Create 10 report card comments that focus on a student needing to improve their attitude to learning.
Alternatively, you can use spreadsheets and report card builders to manually piece together a report card based on a template of comments.
Important tip: When using AI chat technology, make sure you don't submit any personal details about you or your students. Instead let the tool use a placeholder like "Student".
Key considerations for report card comments at the end of the year
Report card comments should aim to deliver feedback to students and parents that is personalized, detailed, and meaningful .
![end of year report card comments physical education Teacher looking stressed at desk.](https://images.prismic.io/prodigy-website/1ee359d7-b71b-453e-a55c-55a0d1e59c6c_negative-report-card-comments.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=max&w=600&h=400)
Writing report card comments doesn’t have to be stressful. Use these strategies to create livelier, more meaningful evaluations.
Effective report card comments emphasize and discuss:
- The specific, notable strengths that a student has shown and should attempt to continue to show
- The specific elements of knowledge, skills, and other outcomes recognized in the curriculum that are the most pertinent to a student’s achievement or development in the period of assessment
- The major next steps for improvement that will: identify the student’s most important learning needs, offer next steps for students and offer specific recommendations for how parents and guardians can help the student’s learning habits and skills (or the development of those habits and skills)
Effective report card comments are personalized – customized to each, individual student – and discuss:
- The student’s learning preferences, willingness to learn, and interests
- Detailed evidence of learning or skill-development gathered from in-class observations, and/or student assignments
Effective report card comments are expressed with clear and simple phrasing, using:
- An encouraging and/or positive tone

Common Sense Education observes that "effective parent communication is crucial in helping students learn. But, for busy teachers it can be challenging just to keep up... Transparency and equity are key to managing any communication between home and school."
Personalized report card comments that are clear, precise, and meaningful are essential for informing students and their parents about what students have learned, what their strengths are and how they can effectively progress.
Among the pressure and deadlines of writing report cards, it can be helpful to keep these key goals in mind.
Get inspired by the report card comment examples — and strategies for success — above to ensure that precision, clarity, and meaning shine through in your report card comments.
When it comes time to hand out your report cards, you can do so with the full confidence that you are doing yourself — and each of your students — the justice your hard work deserves.

Get Your Free 21st Century Timeline Poster ✨ 168 Sample Report Card Comments (Plus a Printable Version)Help has arrived just in time for report cards! ![end of year report card comments physical education "Your child has come so far in math! Focusing on two-digit addition is the next step."](https://www.weareteachers.com/wp-content/uploads/Report-Card-Comments-Feature_v4.jpg) Each progress report and report card provides an opportunity for you to give parents insight into their child’s performance beyond a letter or numerical grade for conduct or academics. Parents want to know how their child is doing, but they also want to know that you get their child. Report cards also help students understand what they are doing well … as well as areas where they could improve. The best way to get these points across is via meaningful comments. Need help? We’ve got dozens of sample report card comments below that are sorted for students at every level: emerging, developing, proficient, and extending standards, plus comments that address behavior, social skills, and more. Get a free Google Slide version of these comments by submitting your email. ![end of year report card comments physical education](https://www.weareteachers.com/wp-content/uploads/Report-Card-Comments-10.jpg) Tips for report card commentsBefore using the list below, it’s important to know that teacher comments should be accurate, specific, and personal. The comments below are structured to allow you to fill in the blank for a particular subject or behavior, and then expand the comment. Sometimes you might require an action like a meeting with the parent. Other times you may be encouraging the student to do something in school or at home to improve on a skill or get more practice. Either way, these sample report card comments will establish the how that attaches to the what of any number or letter grade you are documenting. Sample report card comments for students with emerging skillsIt’s often difficult to know the cause of why a student’s skills are still emerging.
