Grading Papers - Assessing Work

We're looking at two papers written by anonymous class members.  Your criteria for assessment is the RUBRIC, and your instructions for writing the paper.  In addition:

Instructions For Grading:

Do you suspect they didn’t write it?  Highlight or underline it.

Is it confused, or confusing?  Write a question mark in the margin.

Circle things that you think have problems.

Write your comments in the margins.

You may use a question mark, exclamation point, smiley face –

whatever conveys your feelings about that section of the essay. 

You may use proof-readers marks.

Then use the RUBRIC for an overall assessment.
