That's All Folks! We hope you enjoyed our poems |
Assessment Firstly, since this was the first piece of directed writing that my class had done, I was looking to see who would and would not participate. Thankfully, even my reluctant writer attempted the task. I let the tables talk amongst themselves, and I was pleased with the individual attempts. Only a few were out and out copies of their neighbours' work. I assessed the handwriting as well as the content of the poems. We have 4 levels in our reporting, so I made a four level rubric to go along with the poems. As I expected, because the work was a first attempt, most children handed in a level 2 piece of writing. I am excited that they will make much progress over the course of the year. Apple Poem Rubric Level 1 -refusal to write poem; little or no effort attempted; no sense of rhythm or poetry Level 2 -attempted the task, following some of the teacher directions- ie. 2 desciptive words, 3 action words...; occasionally, chosen words had a feeling of rhythm but the sense of poetry was not often evident Level 3 -generally followed the task as given; for the most part, chosen words had a feeling of rhythm, and there was some sense of poetry Level 4 -task followed promptly and completely; chosen words always had a feeling of rhythm, sense of poetry always evident |
