Description
Description
This is a tool teachers can use to assess a student’s writing abilities based on their proficiency level. There can be different rubrics based on the type of composition. The rubric outlines the expectations of what students SHOULD be doing based on the English Language Proficiency.
Both teachers and students can use this tool to assess their own writing.

When should the accommodation be removed?
When should the accommodation be removed?
The Grading with a Writing Rubric accommodation should be removed once an ML demonstrates they can produce writing independently. Most MLs do not require Grading with a Rubric beyond the Beginning level (2), but some students occasionally require this accommodation through the Developing level (3). If you have questions, or feel your ML requires a change in their ILAP regarding this accommodation, please reach out to the ESOL teacher in your building to discuss the student's needs.
