Common Core Writing 
All English courses involve development and communication. To communicate, we use sentences to build paragraphs, and paragraphs are used to build essays. When we write, we also want to develop our ideas. As you will see, this rubric indicates how sentences are scored and how the development of your paragraph is scored.
