Writing Rubrics
We walked through this rubric together and will be using it in writing conferences in the coming week. It has been exciting to see them identify areas of strength and weakness! Through a series of writing lessons and individual instruction/conferences we are coming up with current writing goals together. We will collect writing samples in many ways throughout the year but writing happens daily! Your child's reading response notebook is a great reflection of writing as well. Up next, we will focus on informational writing and students will be using their Genius Hour Topics to create an informational piece for us to rubric together.
