I have to say I find the whole concept of grades pretty meaningless. I am much more interested in skills.
For example:
Writing Rubric-3rd Grade
3. Highest Paper Well organized, clear writing Proofread for spelling errors, punctuation, complete sentences Interesting to read and shows creative approach Sentences have a lot of variety
2. Average Paper Somewhat organized, somewhat clear writing Proofread but still has spelling errors and/or punctuation errors and or sentence errors Sentences have some variety
1. Low Paper Not organized at all, and/or not clear Proofreading not apparent Sentences have no variety
Oral Presentation 3rd Grade
3. Highest Presentation Well organized, uses complete sentences, has good eye contact Has a nice loud voice, and varies tone of voice Makes the material interesting Makes creative use of audience or props
2. Average Presentation Somewhat organized, uses mostly complete sentences, has some good eye contact Sometimes has a loud voice, and sometimes varies tone Has some props or makes some use of audience
1. Low Paper Not organized, does not use complete sentences, little to no eye contact Does not use a loud enough voice, does not vary tone No props and/or no use of audience |
