Socratic Seminar Fishbowl Discussion Rubric

By The Red-Haired Reader

If your students will be doing a Socratic Seminar in class, make things easy on yourself and score them using this teacher-friendly rubric during the discussion! It includes the following categories:

1. Analysis and use of details and evidence

2. Understanding of the text

3. Active listening, speaking, and behavior

4. Preparation

There is a space at the bottom for additional teachers comments, as well as an area for students to write a reflection on their performance and the grade they received.

This rubric can be used with ANY text!

If you are interested in purchasing one of my Socratic Circle packets, I have a variety of texts available for sale. Each product below includes 2 different packets ( A and B) that each have 3 discussion questions that the students prepare and support in advance, a space for them to record questions they'd like to pose if time allows, a place for them to record any comments they wanted to make but could not because they ran out of time, a sheet for them to keep track of their partner's comments and performance, and this rubric for you to use while students are discussing.

-----------------------------

I ALSO sell a Socratic Circle packet that you can add YOUR OWN questions to for any work of literature! Just add 6 "big idea" questions and you're ready to go!

The Giver Socratic Seminar packets and rubric literary analysis

By The Red-Haired Reader

Are you looking for an authentic, student-led final assessment for The Giver?

This file contains 2 different packets of Socratic Circle questions- packet A and packet B. Each packet contains 3 different questions that require students to answer and provide two quotes from the text to back up their answers. Students are also required to come up with 3 additional questions they will ask if there's time in their circle. Finally, the packet has a page where each student will monitor a partner in the opposite circle. They will make a check each time their partner speaks, and paraphrase a meaningful comment their partner made. Lastly, the file contains the socratic circle rubric.

When you print out the file, you'll see packet A on the top half of the sheet, packet B on the bottom half, and then the rubric as the last page of the file. You'll need to cut each packet page in half after you print them out, as each booklet you give to the students is only half a page. They are labeled A and B. Give half your class A, half B, and allow them to plan! The day of the circle, you'll let A discuss for maybe 20-30 minutes, then flip-flop your circles and have B discuss.

My students really enjoy Socratic Seminars! I have found it works better when you give each group three different questions, so you don't see the same discussion 2 times, which is how this packet is set up.

I used the Socratic Circle as their "final test grade" for The Giver. The students need to have completed the whole book to answer the questions included in the packet.

Independent Reading Accountability Rubric for self assessment

By The Red-Haired Reader

Are you in need of a way to encourage your students to come to class prepared and ready to read independently? Do you want to reward those who consistently do their best, and motivate those who could be doing better? Do you like to use self-assessment tools in class to hold your students accountable? Check out my rubric!

This is an independent reading preparedness and preparation rubric I use to make sure students come to class prepared to read, and stay focused and respectful to their peers while reading in class. It is a 4 point rubric, and focuses on preparedness and performance. Students use it to self-assess their own reading habits, and set a goal to work towards at the bottom. Then I go in and score them with a different color pen on the rubric, so they can see where they believe they are, and where I believe they are on the rubric.

By Geography & Math Made Easy

This is a fun and musical way to discuss a tough subject on plate boundaries around the African Rift Valley.

OBJECTIVES:

  1. The learner will listen to and analyze the song.
  2. The learner will understand how physical processes shape patterns in the physical environment specific to tectonic forces.
  3. The learner will describe different landforms such as trenches and lakes near Africa’s Great Rift Valley and the physical processes that cause their development.

LESSON INCLUDES:

  • Detailed teacher instructions
  • Suggesting videos (Not mandatory for lesson)
  • Lyrics to song sheet
  • Song analysis + teacher answer sheet.

Apple Music Curator Playlist Assignment - Great for Back to School!

By MsNerdWood

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).

NEW Personal Narrative Journal Rubric FREEBIE

By Christina Bush

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.
