Writing Rubric Scoring Instructions: · Circle the descriptor in each row that best describes the student‟s work in this category. If the work falls between two descriptors, check a mid-point box to indicate this. Use the scoring box to the right of the table to record the score for each category. · For the category “Development: Elaboration,” double the points and record in the box to the right, as indicated by the “x 2.” This is because elaboration counts more towards the overall success of the piece than other individual categories. Finding an overall Reading/Writing Scaled Score: · Add the total points from the reading and writing rubrics to come up with a raw score. Use the following table to calculate a scaled score:

Total Points 1-9 9.5-13.5 14-18 18.5-22.5 23-27 27.5-31.5 32-36 · ·

Scaled Score 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 3.5 4

To look closely at growth between pre- and post-assessments, keep this rubric with the circled descriptors. You will want to track growth across sub-sections, not just in the scaled score. 3 TCRWP – Draft – 2013-2014
