Incredible Critique Forms and Rubrics: Twelve Individual and Group Writing Assessment Handouts
Summer vacation is a time to spend the majority of your time relaxing and restoring your energy- not planning. This 14-page listing, Incredible Critique Forms and Rubrics: Twelve Individual and Group Writing Assessment Handouts will guarantee that you spend more time tanning than planning.

Along with two full pages of Teacher Notes, it offers 12 printable handouts that students can use to analyze and critique their own writing as well as that of their peers. Teachers can choose which ones best fit their students' skills, abilities and needs.



Five of the handouts are
  • Peer Critique Guide: Strong Fiction Requirements
  • Fiction Analysis: Done or Not Done? That is the Question
  • CREATIVE WRITING PEER CRITIQUE RUBRIC
  • Analytic Writing Group Critique Form

These lessons and activities have been effective with regular, Honors and A.P. English students as well as with SPED students in grades 7-12. The Self-Assessment Sheet: Writing and the Quarter Writing Progress Self-Assessment are great ways to help students accept ownership for their writing and the process that they choose to follow to complete their work. Not only will these activities enable them to strengthen their writing, but they will talk like writers, too.

If we want our students to develop confidence in themselves as writers, we must Show Them the characteristics and standards of strong writing, Help Them to see these strengths in their own writing as well as in others' words-authors they have never met and their peers- through critique sessions and then Let Them revise and develop their writing to reflect their understanding and skills.

Happy Teaching,
