How would you assess .. grade?

With subjective grades I suggest a small scale 0,1,2,3.  It makes it easy for you.  And do it everyday as fast as you can after the class or write it down on a roster that you carry around the class on a clipboard.  After a while a pattern will surface.

Also do not try to grade everyone everyday.  It's crazy and we need to immerse ourselves and find out what their processes are in their inquiry.

Also there is no makeup or rework on class participation.  How would you do that?

Try to do this often for all students.  An electronic gradebook REALLY helps (even if it is a spreadsheet)!
