5 Using the Four-Strand Writing Rubric begins with the STUDENTS! The next two slides are suggestions how the 3-5 WRITING RUBRIC might be used in the classroom. You may find the information useful or have other ideas that are much better. Discuss how you might integrate the rubric into classroom writing instruction

One-on-one roving conferences done on the run Formal one-one one sit down conferences about content and editing Whole-class shares in which students see and hear where to go next Conversations before writing Planning for writing Evidence of revision and editing Using the knowledge you and your students create together, implement informal assessment for learning.

8 GRADE LEVEL EXPECTATIONS The next slides are GRADE LEVEL EXPECTATIONS, for 3 RD, 4 TH, and 5 TH grades, that pertain to students analyzing and evaluating their writing. How can these expectations be met in the classroom? What are some of your successes? What are some of your struggles?

9 Grade 3 GLE 4.1.1 Analyzes and evaluates writing using established criteria. -Identifies professional authors’ styles and techniques (e.g. use of details, word choice, voice). -Critiques a peer’s writing and supports the opinion using established criteria (e.g. content, organization, style, conventions). GLE 4.1.2 Analyzes and evaluates own writing using established criteria. -Identifies specific strength in writing (e.g. sentence beginnings, spelling). -Explains strengths and weaknesses of own writing using criteria (WASL rubric and anchor papers, checklists, scoring guides (District Rubric). -Chooses written work for a portfolio (e.g. selects best piece from each grading period) and justifies the decision with criteria.
