My Experience: I really liked the idea of using the rubric that I had created to teach and grade the persuasive writing papers. The outcome was not what I thougth it would be, but I didn't really know what to expect only have been with this class for a total of 5 days. They are much lower in their writing skills than I had originally thought. In the perfect world I do feel having the rubric ahead of time is an excellent way to begin lessons. Students know exactly what you are expecting from them and can not argue in the end that they did not know your expectations. I have enjoyed doing this lesson. This was all new to me. I have never taught a writing lesson before in my career as a teacher.
