FREE 4-Point Writing Rubric (Checklist) for Expository Writing Grades 4-5 (NYS)
I have been looking for a quick and easy way to grade student writing this year, given the fact that we no longer have an explicit writing block built in to our schedule.
I wanted a rubric that would mirror NYS's 4-point expository writing rubric used to score extended responses on the NYS ELA test. I wanted students to be familiar with this rubric so that they would be well prepared for their state test.
However, I was having a little trouble finding a child friendly version of this rubric.
