Ideas:

Ready to Share

I write a paper which holds the readers' attention. I write ideas which focus on one event and I give several interesting details to describe this event.
Almost There
Halfway Home

I write about one event but my ideas are not specific enough to make the story interesting.
On the Way
Just Beginning

My story doesn't focus on one event or subject. (My ideas do not relate to each other.)
Total
Organization:

Ready to Share

I organize a paper so that it highlights my ideas and story. There is a clear introduction, beginning, middle, end, and conclusion that captures the readers interest and portrays the significance of the event.
Almost There
Halfway Home

I organize a paper which can be easily read. (Organization doesn't confuse my audience.) There is a clear beginning, middle, and end. Introduction and conclusion may be attempted but incomplete. Significance is vague.
On the Way
Just Beginning

My paper lacks a clear sense of direction. My ideas, details, or events are strung together in a loose or random fashion. There is no clear beginning, middle and ending. Introduction and conclusion are missing.
Total
Voice:

Ready to Share

I write a paper that speaks directly to the reader/audience. (I write a paper that is interesting, compelling, and engaging.)
Almost There
Halfway Home

I write a paper that makes a sincere attempt to engage the reader/audience. (The result is pleasant) But my effort is not interesting/ compelling.
On the Way
Just Beginning

My writing doesn't reflect a personal connection. (I do not relate to topic) My writing doesn't involve the reader/audience.
Total
Word Choice:

Ready to Share

I can use "Interesting Words" which convey the intended message in a precise, and natural way. (Reader picks up my energy and is interested)
Almost There
Halfway Home

I can choose functional words to use but my paper still lacks "Interesting Words" or energy.
On the Way
Just Beginning

I did not use interesting words (a varied vocabulary) in my paper. I need to choose more "interesting words."
Total
Sentence Fluency:

Ready to Share

I can write a paper with a good rhythm. Sentences are well built, strong; with varied lenghts.
Almost There
Halfway Home

My sentences are longer but most are the same length, reader/audience still cannot read my piece with fluency. (My writing needs more rhythm.)
On the Way
Just Beginning

My simple sentences are choppy and the reader/audience can not follow my ideas with fluency.
Total
Conventions:

Ready to Share

I can write a paper which reflects a good grasp of standard writing conventions. (My use of correct conventions enhances readability.)
Almost There
Halfway Home

I can write using conventions which enhance readability; but at other times, errors are distracting and impair readability.
On the Way
Just Beginning

My errors in spelling, punctuation, capitalization, grammar & usage; make my paper difficult to read.
