Evaluation Rubric 1 for revised and edited writing assignments

Since writing is a process, not a product, your writing is evaluated in various stages of this process. We are working on several drafts responding to different topics. As we study exemplary segments of the writing process, your writing will be evaluated on the parts we have studied and are currently studying. For example, at the beginning of the third six weeks, you should be able to interpret a topic statement, write an exemplary thesis statement containing both a narrowed topic and an opinion about that topic, map your ideas into an outline that reflects both opinions and references to personal stories or examples for those opinions, and write an effective introduction and conclusion.

Focus on the writing traits of organization and sentence fluency. Highlighting Colors: pink = thesis; green = topic sentences; blue = subtopic sentences; yellow = concluding sentences

Assigned October 24
Continue focusing on organization and sentence fluency, and also pay special attention to word choice. Remember, for this assigment, expressing yourself concisely and precisely for the reader is most important. Use exact "feeling words"

Follow this format for all of your written assignments
