    Criteria
    (Proficient)

    I think that I have


    the ability to find
    and cite strong and
    thorough evidence
    from the text. In
    the summer
    homework, I
    found valid claims
    that could support
    my analysis.

    In confusing texts
    it is difficult for
    me to find the
    meaning or lesson
    behind the story.
    For example, in
    Of Mice and Men
    there were many
    lessons. It was
    difficult to find
    one that had the
    most importance.

    Criteria 1Reading:
    Cite strong and
    thorough textual
    evidence to
    support analysis of
    what the text says
    explicitly as well
    as inferences
    drawn from the
    text.
    Criteria 2Writing:
    Introduce precise
    claim(s),
    distinguish the
    claim(s) from
    alternate or
    opposing claims,
    and create an
    organization that
    establishes clear
    relationships
    among claim(s),
    counterclaims,
    reasons, and
    evidence.

    I can use the


    authors choices
    concerning the
    structure of the
    text to draw
    predictions. I can
    also tell how the
    author
    manipulates time,
    and creates
    mystery, tension,
    and surprise. For
    example, when

    In confusing texts
    I have trouble with
    this standard. In
    Cask of
    Amontillado the
    style of writing
    was hard to
    understand.

    Criteria 3Reading:
    Analyze how an
    authors choices
    concerning how to
    structure a text,
    order events
    within it (e.g.,
    parallel plots), and
    manipulate time
    (e.g., pacing,
    flashbacks) create
    such effects as

    Advanced
    Exceeded
    Standard

    I think I have met


    and exceeded this
    standard. I am
    able to use valid
    evidence in my
    writing to support
    my claims. I am
    also able to make
    precise claims.
    Along with that I
    am able to
    disprove opposing
    claims and make
    counterclaims to
    support my thesis.

    Comments:
    Teacher

    reading Cask of
    Amontillado, I
    was able to
    determine when
    Montresor was
    using suspense
    when killing
    Fortunato.

    mystery, tension,
    or surprise.

    I feel that I was


    able to meet the
    requirements for
    this standard.
    During the group
    wiki-project my
    table group and i
    were successfully
    able to diagnose
    Montresor with
    sociopathy. We
    were able to
    determine this
    diagnosis with
    evidence from the
    text.

    Criteria 4Speaking
    /Listening:
    Come to
    discussions
    prepared, having
    read and
    researched
    material under
    study; explicitly
    draw on that
    preparation by
    referring to
    evidence from
    texts and other
    research on the
    topic or issue to
    stimulate a
    thoughtful, wellreasoned exchange
    of ideas.

    I feel that I am
    able to meet this
    standard. I am
    able to assess a
    text, evaluate
    whether the claims
    support the thesis,
    and whether the
    reasoning is
    relevant.I can also
    tell if a text is
    opinionated and
    bias. For example,
    from the essays in
    this unit, I was
    able to determine
    their opinion of
    the concept of the
    United States.

    Criteria 5Reading:
    Delineate and
    evaluate the
    argument and
    specific claims in
    a text, assessing
    whether the
    reasoning is valid
    and the evidence
    is relevant and
    sufficient; identify
    false statements
    and fallacious
    reasoning.

    I feel that I am
    able to respond to
    different
    viewpoints. I feel
    that I am also able
    to change my
    plans according to
    new evidence that
    is presented, and
    support other
    views.

    I need to improve
    upon my public
    speaking. While I
    do think I
    improved on this
    topic based on
    past experiences, I
    feel that I can
    eventually become
    comfortable
    speaking to an
    audience.

    Criteria 6Speaking and


    Listening:
    Respond
    thoughtfully to
    diverse
    perspectives,
    summarize points
    of agreement and
    disagreement, and,
    when warranted,
    qualify or justify
    their own views
    and understanding
    and make new
    connections in
    light of the
    evidence and
    reasoning
    presented.
    Criteria 7Reading:
    Determine an
    authors point of
    view or purpose in
    a text and analyze
    how an author
    uses rhetoric to
    advance that point
    of view or
    purpose.

    I think I have met


    all of the
    requirements for
    this standard.
    During the TKAM
    Essay, I developed
    claims about the
    ethical dilemmas
    in TKAM. I also
    found evidence to
    support those
    claims. I also took
    the audiences
    knowledge into
    consideration
    while writing.

    Criteria 8Writing:
    Develop claim(s)
    and counterclaims
    fairly, supplying
    evidence for each
    while pointing out
    the strengths and
    limitations of both
    in a manner that
    anticipates the
    audiences
    knowledge level
    and concerns.

    I feel that I met all


    the requirements
    of this standard.
    While reading the
    texts from this
    unit, I was able to
    view how they
    used rhetoric/
    persuasion to
    convey to the
    reader their
    purpose.

    Criteria 9Reading:
    Determine a
    theme or central
    idea of a text and
    analyze in detail
    its development
    over the course of
    the text, including
    how it emerges
    and is shaped and
    refined by specific
    details; provide an
    objective
    summary of the
    text.

    I feel that I have


    exceeded this
    standard because
    while reading
    TKAM, I was able
    to identify the
    theme: the loss of
    innocence. I was
    able to find how
    the theme is
    shown in different
    characters
    throughout the
    novel and how the
    characters evolve
    because of it. I
    think I was able to
    provide a
    objective
    summary of
    TKAM.

    Criteria 10Writing:
    Develop and
    strengthen writing
    as needed by
    planning, revising,
    editing, rewriting,
    or trying a new
    approach,
    focusing on
    addressing what is
    most significant
    for a specific
    purpose and
    audience.

    I feel that I
    exceeded the
    requirements for
    this standard.
    During the TKAM
    Essay, I chose one
    of the most
    challenging
    prompts given. I
    feel that I
    succeeded in
    writing an essay
    that wasnt timed.
    I was able to put a
    great amount of
    time and thought
    into its
    components. I
    think I chose the
    most significant
    claims for the
    prompt I chose. I
    took into
    consideration the
    audiences prior
    knowledge to the
    topic I discussed.
