Literary Elements (Imagery, Tone)
1 (10 or fewer pts.)
Usage of imagery, diction, and tone is slim to non-existent. Instances of such are derivative and not well thought out. Few, if any, senses are used to create concrete images. Tone is either off-mark or not apparent. No thoughtfulness perceived.
2 (11-15 pts)
Imagery, diction, and tone are somewhat interesting. Few senses are realized in the language of the poem. The poem is somewhat thought out. Tone is somewhat developed, yet not strong enough to be truly memorable.
3 (16-21 pts per poem)
Some concrete images arise in the reader's mind. The poem is good, but not memorable. A cursory usage of descriptive language with more than two appeals to the senses.
4 (22-24 pts per poem).
Imagery, diction, and tone are concrete and appeal to multiple senses. The poem personifies thoughtful descriptive language, interesting imagery, and an appropriate tone according to the poet's intent. Memorable and thought-provoking.
Originality and Revision
1 (10 or fewer pts.)
Poem shows virtually no originality or voice. Little to no effort on planning page.
2 (11-15 pts)
Poem shows a fair amount of originality and thoughtfulness, yet it is sprinkled with cliche ideas/idioms. Partial effort on planning page.
3 (16-21 pts per poem)
Poem is thoughtful and creative. A couple of phrases or ideas may be revisited, but the overall product is carefully written. Good ideas on planning page.
4 (22-24 pts per poem).

Formal Usage of Language

Punctuation and spelling is poor and not reflective of student's true capabilities. Poor mechanics interferes with the poem's readability. No apparent revision done in mechanics.
