Mini-Lesson: Using Feedback to Improve Your Writing
- Why are we doing this? It was clear that many students did not provide their partners high quality feedback that could have helped improve their grades.
- Global Issues FIRST - Impacts the whole essay
- What is the thesis statement or controlling idea?
- How well are ideas organized in the essay?
- Local Issues SECOND - Impacts specific parts of an essay
- Sentence issues (awkward, confusing)
- Paragraph issues (TREES)
- Proofreading (grammar, spelling, capitalization)
- Use the rubric language provided when making comments.
- When making negative comments, use "I" statements. When making positive comments, give a reason why!
- Use an end note comment that summarizes your feedback.
