    • Measurable concepts for students to use to assess themselves
  • There are many ways to structure a rubric, and your structure can and should vary based on purpose, the person using the rubric, and ease of understandability and use.
  • School-wide rubrics should be created as a collaboration with YOUR staff. The ones shown here reflect the priorities of one school's staff, and yours will vary based on your students' needs, goals, and priorities.
