Sentence Fluency
EXCELLENT
Purposeful and varied sentence beginnings add originality and energy. The creative use of connectives between sentences and thoughts shows how each one relates to, and builds upon the one before it.
GOOD
Sentence beginnings are not wholly repetitive; some variety is attempted.
The reader sometimes has to hunt for clues that show how sentences are interrelated through connecting words or phrases.
ALMOST
Most of the sentences begin with the same words or phrases; there are few real transitions to add flow from sentence to sentence and beyond.
NEEDS WORK
Most sentences begin the same way and may follow the same structure (e.g. subject, verb, object) in a monotonous pattern. Endless connectives (and, or, nor, but, so, yet, then, etc.) create a jumble of language that doesn't give the reader a chance to pause.
