---- 3 Short Response Rubrics (Student Friendly) *(including two variations totaling 5 rubrics)

***Two of those rubrics come in a different variation - two rubrics on one page in which the teacher/scorer can cut in half. Please click on the green preview button for a closer look!

Students are more likely to work towards higher levels of achievement when they have access to assessment tools used to evaluate their work. These three student-friendly 2-Point Short Response Rubrics consist of language that students are familiar with and can easily understand. These Rubrics enhance students' understanding of how their work will be evaluated. At the bottom of the rubric, there is a "Scorer" section where the teacher/scorer can provide comments and feedback on students' writing responses. This is an excellent tool for lower level, Special Ed, and ELL students.

These Rubrics can be used for peer evaluation. Students can use these "easy to follow" rubrics to evaluate the work of their peers and provide comments and feedback.

This package includes 4 tasks to get your students thinking about their musical choices. What Is Included: Task 1: Create Your Apple Playlist Task 2: Descriptive Paragraph About Your Playlist Task 3: Cover Art Design Task 4: Reflection Questions (Equity and Inclusivity) Rubric I typically give this assignment out at the beginning of the school year to get to know my student’s taste in music. It takes between 4-6 periods to complete and is appropriate for grade 5-8. Please note: This assignment works best if you are able to access Apple Music. As a teacher, you could always set up a free account to show to your students or ask your students if any of them already have it and would be willing to show the class how it works. Spend some time and show them how to use it if you have access to it. You can also see some demos from the Apple website. If you do not subscribe to Apple Music, I highly recommend it. You can still use this assignment without Apple Music with your students and they can reflect on the inclusivity of the playlist that they create. TIPS: 1. Be sure to leave feedback to earn your TeachShare credits! 2. If you like what you see - follow me for new products and updates (click the star by my store name MsNerdWood).

A Proofreading Checklist for students to monitor and proofread their own work. This Checklist includes important components needed in a quality paragraph. The following handout allows students to write a rough draft and then use this checklist to proofread their paragraph. This is a great visual for students to remember, while proofreading any type of writing. I hope you enjoy using this checklist in the classroom.

NEW Personal Narrative Journal Rubric FREEBIE

*Updated 4/28/2021*

This update does not change the content of the rubric. The look of the resource has just been revamped!

I created this rubric to help my middle students know what is expected of them when completing a journal writing prompt for a personal narrative. Often times, my students take advantage of free writing and do not think of it as a "real grade." Giving them something to base their writing off of gives them more direction and motivation to turn in their best work, while also sticking to their personal story/experiences.

*This was intended for, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO, the global pandemic COVID-19 experience. My students are given a weekly prompt via Google Classroom as well as this rubric to follow.

When I give the quizzes back, I go through these examples to help students better understand what it means to explain the accuracy and determine whether an answer makes sense in the context.

This 20-page ressource will have your students researching Canadian astronauts and astronomers with a series of projects and activities.

In this ressource, you will find:

• Elaborate success criteria and project description.
• Detailed rubric with 4 levels of success.
• A Web-Quest with simple questions and an answer key.
• Cut-out cards with 16 well-known Canadian astronauts and astronomers (your students might pick from a hat or you might prefer to pass them out).
• Detailed informative cheat-sheets I've created for each of those astronauts and astronomers for you to verify their responses (and to avoid you having to look!)
• A self-evaluative task including reflexive questions and self-grading activities.
• A written comprehension piece with questions and an answer key on the history of Canadians in space including important dates, names, missions and events in Canadian space history.
• Graphic organizers to prompt students to verify their sources of information and to keep track of their information.

This set of activities is great to leave with a substitute teacher as it could realistically take 2-3 days and includes ample supportive pieces to allow for an easy sub plan.

For goodness sakes, don't forget to have fun!
