Self-Evaluation Reflection Forms for Students, Editable, FREE
Reflection is one of the most powerful research-based strategies for use in the classroom. How many times have you poured over student essays only to hand them back and watch as students take one look at the letter grade and never look back? Or maybe you offer a revision policy but never get the results you want? This is the perfect tool for students to use to actually go back and revisit and reflect on their writing after they have received feedback and a score. It doesn't do for them to just

This planner includes a place for each child's name to work on their goal for the week (I like helping children use the possessive apostrophe), a place for weekly spelling words, the days of the week in Spanish and English and a message

Argument Essay Rubric and Score Card
This rubric is aligned with the College and Career Readiness/ Common Core State Standards-- specifically for 7th grade writing. This is not a fast-paced grading rubric; instead, it should follow deep-level instruction in each of the areas it assesses. Feel free to shorten it to your liking, as some students may not find the information as accessible as others. Two of my classes used a less detailed rubric instead.
