Quick Write Rubric & Prompt

Description

I knew this year the students would be required to write a lot of QuickWrites. I wanted a rubric that was rigorous and clear for the students. I noticed the benefit of this rubric as I started grading the students I teach QuickWrites. I could identify trends immediately, and it helped remove the ambiguity from grading. There is also a list of prompts that you can use with your students.

This rubric is a part of the QuickWrite Graphic Organizer set. This set is an amazing tool in scaffolding the quickwrite process. It includes:

• QuickWrite Graphic Organizer with space to write the paragraph
• Sentence frames for citing evidence and analyzing the evidence
• Bookmarks for the students to easily use the sentence frames
