Almost There

Has a somewhat clear thesis statement, but does not grab the audience's attention. States an opinion or point of view, but is confusing or contradicts self.
You Got it!

Supporting paragraphs

Struggling

Facts and reasons are weak and do not show strong support of POV. Paragraphs are non-identifiable or contain too many different ideas. No direct citations from tales or outside resources.
Almost There

Facts and reasons supporting POV are supported by direct citations/ reference to the text, but not all reasons are convincing. Some paragraphs covered too many ideas.
You Got it!

Almost There

Organization & Clarity

Struggling

Some parts are definitely out of place. It is not easy to see how the content connects. Confusing words/phrases seriously detract from the readability of the paper.
Almost There

The order works. Most of the content is connected. There is a stray thought here or there. Citations may not match up with the argument of the paragraph in a place or two.
You Got it!

This essay is easy to follow. Nothing is out of place. All of the content in the paper connects to another. All sources clearly and correctly (in MLA format) support the paragraph topics.
