Writing Rubric in a Song - Grades 1-5 MP3

Writing rubric in a song. Kids will review some of the main elements of the writing and language arts rubric, and take a song and dance break, too.

The writing rubric rules apply to fiction and nonfiction. They include:

• Write about one topic
• Tell about the 5Ws
• Use your 5 senses to describe
• Write for an audience
• Make it colorful to read
• Start writing with a great “lead”
• Give examples (or “play a little riff”) on the theme
• Summarize at the end
• Be careful, neat, and spell it right

Many, though not all, of the common core standards are featured in this song including:

• Writing Standards (W.1.1) (W.1.2) (W.1.3) (W.1.4)
