Learning How to Write Book Reviews Using Writing Rubrics

Some fun student examples..
The students are participating in my EIT (Educator in Training) program - they have become the teacher to learn how writing pieces are scored. The ultimate goal is for kids to have a better understanding of the expectations for the writing assignment. (The EIT part is just for fun! 😀)
 Our next writing piece is a book review. Today, they are using a rubric to score four book review examples. With each score, they are providing their "students" with ways to improve. A fun way to learn about our new writing piece and what is expected.
