These are the points I look for when grading your paper. This is what u need to look for as well.
This is what I want you to look for when reading a peers paper. Do not read the essay!!!!!!!!!!
1. how many pages? Is it a 3 page paper? Or only a 2 and a half page paper. Only 2.50? then it’s too short.
2. does it have page numbers on the bottom right hand corner?
3. does it have the right color of your class ( Yellow?, blue? or red?) under their name in top left corner ?
4. Does it have a 3-5 sentence intro?
5. read the thesis. (last sentence in intro) After reading it, do u know what this paper is about?
6 look at 1st topic sentence. (1st sentence in next paragraph) Does it make sense to fit with the thesis?
7. look at 2nd topic sentence. Does it make sense. Do u know what the paragraph is going to be about?
8. look at the 3rd topic sentence. Does it make sense? Does it make sense in this paper?
9. are all the paragraphs indented?
10. is there a 3-5 sentence conclusion.
11 does the conclusion mention the 3 main ideas again that are in the topic sentences?
12. does it read, in conclusion? If it does….it is wrong. Never write that. Just write your conclusion
13. does this paper have a separate Works Cited page.
14 does it have in paper citations? (never put citations in intro, thesis, topic sentences or conclusion)
15. Are there at least the right number of different sources asked for?
16 are the names cited in paper last names of person
17. are the names in ( )?
Points I look for when grading Works Cited page. This is what u need to look for as well.
1. Does it say Works Cited. ( more than one citation therefore reads as plural)
2. only Works Cited gets centered. Everything else on page is flush left.
3. regular font….. do not bold, do not underline,
4. last name first in citations? First name next? Andres, April,
5. name of book, article magazine, what ever nxt.
6. all names listed in alphabetical order?
6. does each last name correspond with a similar name in the essay?
Questions? always ask.
