good

3 pts

poor

1 pts

Spelling

excellent

Spelling is generally correct.
good

Spelling is usually correct on common words, but more difficult words are problematic.
poor

Spelling errors are frequent and repeated.
Punctuation

excellent

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

Punctuation is somewhat accurate, and shows a good command for readability, but not creativity.
poor

Punctuation is random, and only the easiest rules show awareness of correct use.
Grammar and usage

excellent

Grammar and usage are alway correct and enhance the writing clarity and style.
good

Grammar and usage is good, but does not always add to the style of the writing.
poor

Problems with grammar and usage are not serious enough to distort the meaning, but may not be correct or accurately applied all the time.
Sentence Fluency

excellent

Writing has an easy flow, with strong varied sentence structures. There are varied and purposeful sentence beginnings.
good

Sentences get the job done, constructed correctly, and sound. Sentence structures attempt to vary, as do sentence beginnings.
poor

Sentence structures are simplistic and monotonous. Need complexity, but they do make sense.
Organization

excellent

The organization enhances and showcases the central idea or theme. The
order, structure, or presentation of information is compelling and moves
the reader through the text.

good

The organizational structure is strong enough to move the reader through
the text without too much confusion.

poor

The writing lacks a clear sense of direction. Ideas, details, or events seem
strung together in a loose or random fashion; there is no identifiable
internal structure. The writing reflects more than one of these problems:

Content

excellent

This paper is clear and focused. It holds the reader's attention. Relevant
anecdotes and details enrich the central theme.

good

The writer is beginning to define the topic, even though development is still basic or general.

poor

As yet, the paper has no clear sense of purpose or central theme. To
extract meaning from the text, the reader must make inferences based on
sketchy or missing details. The writing reflects more than one of these
problems:
