My Grading Rubric 11/30/12

For my grading rubric, I went the traditional way. I looked at examples of my daughter’s grading rubrics she has for her school and thought of how mine have been set up in the past. I also added a bit more to really reflect what I feel presentations should amount to. I also made this rubric based on how I feel when someone is presenting an assignment. I don’t want to be bored and I don’t want to see a lot of errors. I want to view someone’s assignment positively as I know mine will be. I want to enjoy the information they present to me instead of sitting there critiquing them in my mind.
