CONTENT

2 Exceeds expectations: Main idea is clear. Many details are provided. Writer does more than is asked for.

1.5 Meets expectations: Main idea is clear. Some details are provided. Writer fulfills all requirements.

0.5 More work needed: Main idea is unclear. Lacking details. Minimum requirements are not fulfilled.

COMPREHENSIBILITY

2 Exceeds expectations: All ideas are clearly conveyed with appropriate language. NO noticeable interference from English.

1.5 Meets expectations: Most to all ideas are clearly conveyed. Little, if any, interference from English.

1 Almost there: The message is unclear in a few places. Write may have relied to much on new vocabulary in relation to the length of the text. Interference from English.

0.5 More work needed: The message is difficult to figure out. Language is not the writer's own--it may be from an online translator or mainly from another person. Extensive English interference.

VOCABULARY USAGE

2 Exceeds expectations: Wide variety of vocabulary (verbs and nouns) from vocabulary learned. Spelling is correct.

1.5 Meets expectations: Some vocabulary variety. Spelling is mostly correct.

1 Almost there: Limited vocabulary variety. Some mistakes in vocabulary use. Problems with spelling.

0.5 More work needed: Vocabulary problems distort meaning. Mistakes in spelling make the sample incomprehensible.

ORGANIZATION

2 Exceeds expectations: The order and format are logical and help to convey the ideas. Writer uses transition and/or sequencing words (eg. then, later, because of that, etc.) in the writing.

1.5 Meets expectations: Ideas are ordered logically. Transition and/or sequencing words may be used to help with presentation.

1 Almost there: Order is illogical and/or confusing in places. Transition and/or sequencing words are used incorrectly or are not present.

0.5 More work needed: Sentences seem randomly organized. The lack of order obscures the main idea.

ACCURACY

2 Exceeds expectations: Grammar is used correctly throughout the writing. Punctuation is correct.

1.5 Meets expectations: Grammar errors are minor and do not distort meaning. Punctuation is mostly correct.

1 Almost there: Grammar errors may distort meaning. Sentences may be formulaic/repetitive. Frequent mistakes in punctuation disrupt the flow.
