Student+Reflections


 * Student Criteria for Assessing One Another**


 * Did the reader say all of the words correctly?


 * Did she follow all of the punctuation? (Pause for commas, hyphens, or line breaks, stop for periods, voice goes up for questions or exclamations)
 * Did he read at a good pace (not too fast, not too slow)


 * Did she understand the meaning of the poem (Is it sad or happy? Does it describe something or is it a snapshot?)

Students gave each other written and oral feedback on their poetry readings. We used the language of "pluses" (things they saw that were good) and "deltas"(improvements that the reader could have made on their reading).
