Book Report Scoring Rubric

My Weekend News will be Excellent if:
- I tell about at least 2 events in order
- I tell how I felt or what I thought about the
events
- I put spaces between words
- I use my best creative spelling and check my 'no excuse'
words
- I use capital letters at the beginning of a sentence and
periods at the end
My Weekend News will be Acceptable if:
- I tell about at least two events, but do not explain how I
feel or what I think about the events
- I put spaces between words
- I spelled most 'no excuse' and book words
correctly
- I use creative spelling to write 'some' of the sounds I
hear in each word
- I spell most of the 'no excuse' words
correctly
- I use some periods and capital letters, but not in every
sentence
My Weekend News will Need Improvement if:
- I do not tell about at least two events, or I leave
out important information
- I do not spell 'no excuse' words correctly
- I do not use my best creative spelling and it is hard for
the teacher to read my work
- I forget to use capital letters and periods
