When fishing […]

Hi Joanne, I’m glad you think they might be useful. I should have added that these are used for evaluating open ended essay questions. For journals, I use a much different set of rules. I still haven’t perfected a journal entry rubric yet or I’d share it. Maybe someone else has one. My understanding of […]

Laura, Thanks for sharing your rubrics. I know I will find the student rubrics helpful as I assign more writing journal entries. We have a schoolwide rubric for writing but it is so complicated that the students really don’t use it as they should. Your samples I will be able to use for my science […]

How to give students helpful feedback on their writing for student improvement. I’ve attached more detailed versions, but the one I use now and my middle school students seem to prefer is the shortened version (the last attachment below).

Joanne,
Thank you so much for putting in the time to post your activity to the site! I’m working on watershed pollution and estuaries (how all leads to the ocean), and it would be a great addition to my unit.
It was wonderful seeing you again and catching up!

Now I’m looking for some things. Gail, would you please send me a copy of the letter and permission slip that you sent to parents. You made our project sound very impressive and I want to do the same. Janice, you said we could borrow some GPS devices. Ten would be the maximum we might […]

Hi, Carrie and Janice!
I had expected to attend tomorrow, but I was diagnosed with a bad sinus infection today and am on a very strong antibiotic. Unfortunately, I will not make tomorrow, but will be around in April. I am really sorry.
