Punctuation
excellent
The punctuation is accurate, even creative, and quides the reader through the text easily.

Lack of punctuation, or numerous errors in punctuation affect the readability of the text.

poor
Errors in grammar and usage are very noticable, frequent, and affect meaning.
Paragraphing

Paragraphing tends to be sound, and reinforces the organizational structure.
good
Paragraphing is good, but lacks sound organization, dealing with topic sentences, body, and a conclusion.
