How do I add Bonus Points to the grade book?

We played a Bingo class in game to increase participation, but I'm not sure how to add Bonus points in my grade book for the winners.

When creating a new grade item, check the box that says bonus:

If you create a category as well, you'll want to make sure the "Can Exceed" button is checked.

Hi @Carolyn.B.591, great question and that sounds like a fun way to encourage participation! You can add new items to your grade book and simply check the "Bonus" box to ensure that it will be counted as a bonus for your learners.

1. In the Grade Book, navigate to the Manage Grades tab
2. Select New item, then Numeric
3. Enter details, ensuring you check off "bonus":

Hope this is helpful!
