Meets or Exceeds Expectations Somewhat Meets Expectations Does Not Meet Expectations
Purpose
Points:
10 (16.66666%)
Essay makes clear that the intended purpose is to analyze the use of one or more literary elements present in the story read by the class and how the author uses them to convey the theme of memories. The thesis statement is clearly established and includes all of the previously mentioned elements.
Points:
6 (10.00%)
While the author has an intended purpose reflected in the paper as a whole, that purpose may not be clearly stated in one sentence at the outset of the paper.
Points:
2 (3.33333%)
The paper lacks a clear direction and intent throughout. The writer has neglected to establish their intent to analyze literary elements or theme from the story read in class.
Organization and Order
Points:
10 (16.66666%)
The essay utilizes a properly structured introduction with a hook at the beginning and a thesis statement at the end of the paragraph. The paper employs body paragraphs that have topic sentences at the beginning of them to set the reader′s expectations and to focus the writer on the particular literary element that they are discussing, and ends the paper with a proper conclusion that rephrases the thesis statement and invites the reader (without addressing them) to extend their learned knowledge from the paper to their lives.
Points:
6 (10.00%)
The essay uses an introduction, body, and conclusion to convey their point, but lacks necessary elements to create an effective beginning, middle, and end to their essay.
Points:
2 (3.33333%)
The paper lacks a cohesive structure. The writer has given little thought or effort into how the paragraphs are presented in their writing.
Development
Points:
15 (25.00%)
The writer has employed the use of four secondary resources and one primary resource. All are used as either quotes or paraphrases in the essay. The writer has successfully explained how the quoted or paraphrased material connects to the story and the thesis statement. The author does not leave the reader to interpret what they mean and has given enough explanation to cohesively and coherently connect all of their thoughts together.
Points:
10 (16.66666%)
The writer has made some valid points within their analysis, but they have not connected their thoughts back to the thesis statement or they have left off key points of explanation for the reader. This lack of explanation or discussion leaves the reader needing to ask more questions and no way to answer them from the expert source, the writer of the essay.
Points:
5 (8.33333%)
The body paragraphs lack a clear focus and point. They may include heavy summary, incomplete connections, or erroneous information from the story read.
Writing Style
Points:
10 (16.66666%)
The writer has adhered to a professional style throughout their essay, including avoiding the use of the second person pronoun ″you,″ addressed the authors of the story and of the secondary resources adequately, discussed scenes of events from the story in the present tense throughout their writing, and has avoided phrases that indicate opinion, avoided contractions, and avoided overly pompous language.
Points:
6 (10.00%)
The writer of the essay tends to lean professional in their tone and style, but may falter in some key ways. They may use contractions, though sparingly or have poorly worded sentences that are not concise in any manner. These are few and do little to deter the reader from understanding the writer′s thoughts and point of view.
Points:
2 (3.33333%)
The writer frequently uses overly pompous or overly familiar language with the reader and does little to make their writing sound less like their speaking voice.
Formatting
Points:
7 (11.66666%)
The writer has adhered to all of the following required elements of MLA formatting: 1″ margins all the way around the paper; Times New Roman 12-point font; page numbers with writer′s last name inserted in the header; four-line first-page header that includes the writers name, teacher′s name, the course, and the due date in proper format; a properly formatted title centered on the line after the due date; indented paragraphs; and double-spacing throughout.
Points:
4 (6.66666%)
The writer has mostly included the required elements for formatting for MLA, but may be missing or have disregarded no more than four elements.
Points:
1 (1.66666%)
The writer has missed or disregarded more than 4 elements of MLA formatting in their paper.
Citations and Works Cited Page
Points:
8 (13.33333%)
Parenthetical citations appear after every use of a quote or a paraphrase from another author. The in-text citations include the authors last name or a shortened version of the of the resource that corresponds to the works cited page. The in-text citations also include a page number if available. The works cited page includes all resources that are used in the essay (none that are not in-text cited in the essay) and are properly formatted based on the Purdue OWL′s guidelines for the type of resource that they are.
Points:
6 (10.00%)
In-text citations are present and they correspond to the works cited page. However, some elements were left off from either not double-checking formatting on Purdue OWL or neglected by the writer.
Points:
2 (3.33333%)
In-text citations and/or works cited page is not present.
