Nominal Evidence (69.00%)
Summary fails to identify and explain three reading areas
critical to building young student’s capacity to comprehend
literature is provided.
Analysis fails to identify recommendations from practice
guide. Weak summary of chosen practices to be incorporated
into teaching practices with little rationalization.
Paper lacks any discernible overall purpose or organizing
claim.
Statement of purpose is not justified by the conclusion. The
conclusion does not support the claim made. Non-credible
sources are used.
Surface errors are pervasive enough that they impede
communication of meaning. Inappropriate word choice
and/or sentence construction are used.
Appropriate template is used, but some elements are missing
or mistaken. A lack of control with formatting is apparent.
Reference page is present. Citations are inconsistently used.
Unacceptable Evidence (74.00%)
Inadequate summary of three reading areas critical to
building young student’s capacity to comprehend literature is
provided. Evaluation somewhat supported by research.
Inadequate analysis of recommendations from practice guide
provided. Insufficient summary of chosen practices to be
incorporated into teaching practices with basic rationalization
also provided.
Thesis and/or main claim are insufficiently developed and/or
vague; purpose is not clear.
Thoughts are orderly, but may have a few inconsistencies.
Sources used are credible. Introduction and conclusion
bracket the thesis.
Some mechanical errors or typos are present, but are not
overly distracting to the reader. Correct and varied sentence
structure and audience-appropriate language are employed.
Appropriate template is used. Formatting is correct, although
some minor errors may be present.
Reference page is included and lists sources used in the
paper. Sources are appropriately documented, although
some errors may be present.
Acceptable Evidence (87.00%)
Adequate summary of three reading areas critical to building
young student’s capacity to comprehend literature is
provided. Evaluation supported by research.
Adequate analysis of recommendations from practice guide
provided. Sufficient summary of chosen practices to be
incorporated into teaching practices with clear rationalization
also provided.
Thesis and/or main claim are clear and forecast the
development of the paper. It is descriptive and reflective of
the arguments and appropriate to the purpose.
Thoughts show logical progression. There is a smooth
progression from introduction to conclusion. Most sources
are authoritative.
Prose is largely free of mechanical errors, although a few may
be present. The writer uses a variety of effective sentence
structures and figures of speech.
Appropriate template is fully used. There are virtually no
errors in formatting style.
Reference page is present and fully inclusive of all cited
sources. Documentation is appropriate and citation style is
usually correct.
