Idea/Response

Insufficient Response

Sufficient Response

Response is reasonable and goes beyond a literal meaning of the text.
Exemplary Response

Response is perceptive and shows awareness of complexities of the text.
Explanation

Insufficient Response

Sufficient Response

The explanation of the response is specific enough to show that the student can make connections throughout the text and draw valid conclusions.

Text Evidence

Insufficient Response

The student does not base ideas on the text/what was read, or the student's does not give text evidence
Partially Sufficient Response

Text evidence provided not present, or is flawed and does not adequately support the idea.

Inadequate text evidence is:

-only a general reference to the text
-too partial to support the response
-weakly linked to the response
- misunderstands the meaning of the text
Sufficient Response

Text evidence used to support the idea is accurate and relevant.

Response & text evidence used to support it are clearly linked.
Exemplary Response

Text evidence used to support the response is specific and well chosen. Overall, the evidence strongly supports the validity of the idea.
Coherence

Insufficient Response

The student's reponse lacks text support, is quoted word for word with no explanation, or "echoes" the text evidence.
Partially Sufficient Response

No textual evidence is provided.

Even if text evidence is provided, the response still needs to be more specific or explain the idea more clearly.
Sufficient Response

The combination of the response and text evidence demonstrates a good understanding of the text.
Exemplary Response

The combination of the response and text evidence demonstrates a good deep understanding of the text.
