DESCRIPTION

✅ These graphic organizers are designed to be used with any story or book. They are great for small groups, literature circles, reading workshop, centers, or use with your reading program. They can also be used after each chapter, as a formative assessment or "checkpoint" along the way, to keep track of important quotes throughout a reading, etc.

About Resource #2: Evidence-based Response Rubrics - EDITABLE!

★ Citing Evidence Rubrics

★ 16 pages

★ Suitable for Grades 5-12

★ PDF and Editable Versions

This resource includes:

★ 4 Evidence-Based Response Rubrics (in two variations – totaling 8 rubrics!)

*******************************

Citing evidence is an important skill that students MUST master to demonstrate credibility, proficiency, and sense of eloquence. This resource includes four rubrics that capture students’ level of mastery when using evidence. These rubrics evaluate students’ abilities to support their ideas, inferences, claims, and/or responses with relevant text evidence. It also evaluates the strength and thoroughness of their explanations/analysis of evidence.

All 8 Rubric pages are EDITABLE for you to adjust and modify to meet your needs!

The four rubrics come in two different variations (totaling 8 rubrics):

✅ Variation #1: The FOUR rubrics are created individually on one page and includes a “Comments/Feedback” section for you to complete.

✅ Variation #2: The same FOUR rubrics are minimized to two (of the same rubric) on one page without the “Comments/Feedback” section.

Please note, the editable version does not contain the same fonts and borders that are in the PDF version because they are copyrighted materials by contributing clip art artists. The editable version has been created using Times New Roman fonts to ensure full and complete access of the rubrics without any formatting issues. Additionally, I replaced some of the copyrighted clip art with “free to use” clip art! You may modify the fonts and add your own clip art and borders as you wish!

Avez-vous du mal à savoir par où commencer ? Où finir ? Avez-vous de la difficulté à enseigner de plus petits morceaux afin que vos élèves sachent ce qu'on attend d'eux, afin qu'ils puissent écrire efficacement et en toute confiance ? C'est votre première année d'enseignement et vous aimez voir un modèle ou un exemple pour vous guider dans les années à venir ? Cherchez vous des critères de réussite et des modèles - Avez-vous honnêtement du mal à faire la différence, vous-même, entre les différents genres que vos élèves sont censés produire ? Cherchez pas plus loin! J'ai fait le travail pour que vous puissiez enseigner avec confiance et pour que vos élèves performent avec confiance.

Mes études de genre vous donneront suffisamment de contenu enseignable, d'activités imprimables, d'invitations de discussion et d'opportunités d'écriture guidée pour écrire avec facilité et confiance.
