How Your Points Work
This page explains how you earn points, level up your character, unlock badges, and see how your work turns into a score in the gradebook. If you ever think, “Why did I get this score?” — this is where you find the answer.
Overview The Big Picture
Every assignment you complete earns points. Those points build your character, your badges, and your grade.
SP = Skills Points (practice & core skills)
CP = Challenge Points (higher-level thinking & complex tasks)
RP = Reflection Points (explaining your thinking & learning from mistakes)
Each assignment has its own mix of SP, CP, and RP, so you always know what matters most before you start.
XP Breakdown What Each Point Type Means
Every assignment tells you how many SP, CP, and RP you can earn.
Skills Points
What it is: Points for practicing a specific skill or set of skills.
Examples: Note-taking tasks, vocabulary practice, reading checks, guided questions.
Why: These are the building blocks you need to fully understand the unit.
Challenge Points
What it is: Points for more difficult work that asks you to analyze, compare, argue, or create.
Examples: Essay questions, projects, debates, DOK 3-4 tasks.
Why: This shows how deeply you understand the ideas; not just if you remember them.
Reflection Points
What it is: Points for explaining your thinking, reflecting on mistakes, and planning next steps.
