3.b. Rubrics - 3 examples

June 24, 2011
One way in which I plan, teach, and assess to best serve my students is by using rubrics. In planning instruction, I decide what sort of performances I would like to see my students produce to "meet the standard", and create a rubric from there. Then, in teaching, I can provide the rubric, making it clear to my students what they are expected to know and be able to do. Finally, in grading my students with a rubric, I can quickly provide them with individualized feedback to guide their continued learning and improvement.

Below is a selection of three, rather diverse rubrics from my collection. The first one I modified, the second one I stole, and the third one is all my own!

1. Based on the 6 traits, this rubric is for assessing the 3 mini-essays that the Honors English 10 students wrote about the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: Mini-Essay Rubric
2. This rubric is for assessing the attorney during the to Kill a Mockingbird mock trial final activity: Attorney Rubric
3. This rubric is for assessing mandalas, art projects students created to symbolize themselves: Mandala Rubric
