The students then were given several questions to prompt their thinking and asked to discuss the text in groups and use their own background knowledge and experience to support how they felt about the questions asked. Mrs. Collier planned to ask the students to write several paragraphs about the text, and grade the paragraphs based on mechanics, a topic sentence, two supporting details, and the concluding sentence as a summative assessment. Do the instructions and rubric criteria match? If not, what other items should Mrs. Collier add to the rubric? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) No the assignment and the rubric do not match. The rubric should also have discussion with peers, background knowledge, and experience for supporting details. If Mrs. Collier planned to ask the students to write several paragraphs she should include the complete directions and expectations of the assignment in the beginning.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: I agree that the rubric does not match and agree with your additions but if the additions are not part of the assessment then they should not be on the rubric.
